Inviting the whole world

A girl's 16th birthday party was ruined when 60 youths gatecrashed the private event after reading about it on Facebook, The Daily Telegraph reports.

The owner of the south London Baba Foundation community centre - which doubles as a restaurant - said he was horrified when the massive gang appeared outside after reading about the party on Facebook.

Daniel Sisilu said he 'blamed himself' for the trouble last Saturday after putting only one bouncer on the door.

He said he only agreed to the party because he was friend's with the teenage girl's mother.

He said: "I blame myself and I totally regret this. But I've been totally had.

"If you put an invite on Facebook then you are inviting the whole world to come along."

Events on Facebook are a handy way to coordinate parties and get-togethers. But many events are not made closed, meaning the details are technically readable by all and sundry. If you're a member of a network, your event may even be accessible via the network's home page!
