First off, with the younger generation, Facebook is becoming 
passe...they are moving on to other social media.

I'm 64 years old and like it a lot as I can keep up with all my friends 
and relatives who are now scattered throughout the world. Some of the 
people I had lost contact with for many years and now we can keep up 
with each other.

My feeling is ...if the person is on Facebook, they realize they are 
going to be "public figures" so to speak. If I am trying to find a long 
lost friend and they are not on Facebook, I leave it at that assuming 
they want privacy.
