Bug Description

Using the current raring version, my facebook timeline was failing so I killed the friends-service, the UI is empty since. It seems like the dispatcher is hitting a 500 error on the fb servers ... when that happens it would be nice to let the user know in the UI

Yes, the UI could use better error reporting to the user.

Mhhh this really bugs me too. Is there a way for friends to pass errors to the app? Or maybe it could directly send out a notification (if so this is more a bug in friends itself).
