Eh, why? A forum with a Facebook page makes no sense to me

Have to agree, I see no use for it. FB opposes anonymity- not something our readers want.

Facebook doesn't oppose anonymity as a technology. Social Networking Identity Analysis is a growth area for IC.

IC= intelligence community I guess, but you are supporting my contention that our users will not want to lose anonymity by interfacing APC through Facebook. Every day there is a fresh news clip about FB privacy and policy concerns. Why would we want to get into anything like that?

There's a reason no one uses their real name here. And anyone who did could be considered downright foolhardy (at least when they chose their username ) or retired.

Not to mention that a lot of Human Resource Groups at major companies are doing background checks on prospective employees, including Facebook and Credit Checks.
