Also, when Adrian first set up an account he was straight away given a list of friends of his who were already on Facebook. He had not given FB access to HIS email, but anyone who had, and who had Adrian in THEIR email contacts was instantly listed. Creepy, but at the time it seemed well meaning. Obviously we know better now.
I suppose that was the advantage of having to have an academic email address to sign up originally. That's my work address, so there wouldn't have been any FB users in the UK who had my email.
