I sometimes only get invited to events via Facebook that I may not have heard about otherwise. It helps to live in a city thriving with Game Devs of course. Also if you make a good FB game then you can easily make huge amounts of money a day (speaking from experience).

You're supposed to find (or, better, be found) by your old classmates back in high school or college. You reconnect and talk via messages for a few days. Then you remember why you really didn't care to stay in touch with this person and silently ignore them and hope they don't start messaging you. It's real fun! A similar experience every few weeks!

I have found a few lost friends from years ago with facebook, and I get kept up to date from certain groups and users who I befriended, so I use it as sort of news channel. Some people use facebook like twitter and tell the world every single thing they have in their mind, which is mostly just noise, I think I never understood what good that should do? Well you can play games on facebook, which is just wasting your time and spamming your friends with facebook game stuff... something that I wouldn't start to do now, as there are so many big games on facebook already.

They post status updates, I do the same. I also use it to post links to articles I like. Then there's Castle Age. That's a fun game. Eventually I want to create a Facebook game, but that'll have to wait until I have more time. Also, you can link your blogs RSS feed to you Facebook Notes app. That way your blog posts will appear as notes to your Facebook friends.
