I may have been out of it, but I recently came across the facebook directory page, and found it to be both amazed and a little unsettling. It’s the ultimate white pages (remember those?).

I’ve always been a basic user of the search features, but seeing the people directory available in a list format – I’m wondering how many of the 450 million registered users have made their information available here.

FB, of course, makes it clear you can opt out by changing your privacy settings. If anything, I’m impressed how many “Yamasaki’s” are listed in FB.
