Tad: Who said they were? Social networking sites are the modern-day answer to the 19th-century collector's display case of curiosities.
Molly: I'd say they are a stalking mechanism for sexual predators and their prey.
Tad: That too. But where you find fault, I see merit. Facebook is a cheap alternative to hiring a private investigator. Once you're “friends” with someone, you can look at their photos, see what they've been up to and who they were touching while they were doing it.You can also check who their friends are and generally vet a potential love interest.
Divergent views on Facebook--a way to find out about someone. A way of letting someone find out about you. Relevant information / too much information. Surely, one puts forward the kind of impression of oneself that one imagines will be attractive or acceptable, but it is still information. The question is, perhaps, does one have to reveal oneself in order to have access to information about the other?
