Facebook used to organise London flash mob

A 22-year-old man said he used Facebook to organise a so-called flash mob at a London train station after being inspired by a TV commercial.


The flash mob organiser, who was identified only as Crazzy Eve, admitted to using the social networking site to draw thousands of people to London's Liverpool Street Station last week.


Crazzy Eve said he was inspired to organise last Friday night's unusual dancing event at the usually busy train station by a T-Mobile advertisement.


The success of the flash mob event has prompted Crazzy Eve to schedule another flash mob gathering for next Friday, this time at London's Trafalgar Square.

Comedian Charlie Todd, who organises such events in New York, said flash mobs are a chance to enliven traditional boring locales. "We get satisfaction from coming up with an awesome idea and making it come to life," said Todd.
