TECH GOSSIP MAGAZINE Valley Wag is moaning how Johnny Foreigner seems to be having more fun using the social Not-working site Facebook.

It says that it looks for Facebook news stories and, apart from the odd paedophile story from the states, all the good ones are from foreign parts.

Australians, Britons and Spaniards use Facebook only to plan huge flash-mob parties at beaches, pools and holiday homes. While in the US it is used for Tech Karaoke invites, the site complains.

To prove its point, Valley Wag listed several stories, which we have to admit seem to indicate that when it comes to getting a decent story out of Facebook, the Brits do it better.

SkyNews reported that thousands of Facebook party-goers were preparing to descend on a seaside town for a "Night Of Mayhem", local police are determined to stop it going ahead.

The Telegraph reported how Facebook strangers nicked a woman's ID and set up a Facebook profile describing her as a prostitute.

The MailOnline reported how a Facebook Tube party, organised by City banker, turned into a drunken riot on the underground.

The Telegraph reported how Teenagers were using internet satellite images to spot outdoor swimming pools before meeting for late-night dips. Once a venue is found, the youngsters use social networking sites including Facebook and Bebo to meet for impromptu swims and pool parties.

The MailOnline told a yarn about how a husband killed his wife and himself after she confessed on Facebook she was leaving him.

This Is Cheshire reported how a girl's 18th birthday party turned into a major "riot" after an invitation was posted on Facebook. Gangs of teenagers tried to gatecrash the fancy dress bash after a friend of the unnamed youngster put a message about it on the internet. µ
