For all the
buzz Facebook enjoys in its hometown, the social network, oddly enough, is more popular up north, travel website Gridskipper
reveals in a new map. Forget the stereotype of Facebook as being for college kids. Really, it's for Canadians. Toronto is the
#1 local network by number of Facebook members; Vancouver,
#3. Calgary, Montreal, Edmonton, and Halifax round out the top 20. Another fact that leaps off the map: Facebook's near-nonexistence outside the English-speaking world, which you can also
see in this earlier Valleywag map. That explains its
hiring plans for international business-development types. First, Canada; next, the world.
