Networking site Facebook is triggering a massive mobilization of protesters around the world who will hit the streets this weekend in support of the Burmese monks.
Tens of thousands of people are expected to take to the streets around the world Saturday in Facebook-fueled marches protesting Myanmar's recent crackdown on monks' pro-democracy demonstrations.
The marches, organized at a lightning pace by volunteers using Facebook, show the increasing power and reach of a social-networking site originally designed to help college students find drinking buddies. Facebook members in dozens of cities worldwide have planned demonstrations for Saturday.
