Facebook is actually a very effective social networking tool. Every event I have attended over the last 2 years has exclusively been advertised on Facebook. No calls, emails, texts, nothing. It's all on facebook now.

It is a shame how they steal your information though. And also scary for the risk of sexual predators.

However, I am more than happy to put ridiculous pictures of myself up. That's just how I operate, I'm an open book. If an employer doesn't want to hire me because they find a picture of me chugging a beer from 5 years ago, then so be it. I probably don't want to work with those sorts of people anyways.

I understand if you are currently stuck halfway up the corporate ladder and disagree with me on this. But that's not the life I live.
