You basically give them your email address and it crawls through your contacts list, looking for people who are on facebook. Here's a few more interesting links about it: <ul> <li><a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/2010/01/friend-finder-promotion/" rel="nofollow">Friend Finder Promotion</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/2010/01/rogue-facebook-marketers/" rel="nofollow">Yes, Rogue Marketers Can Steal Your Public Facebook Data</a></li> <li><a href="http://gdgtgrl.net/2009/06/22/facebook-friend-finder-what-you-may-not-know-about-your-data/" rel="nofollow">Facebook Friend Finder: What You May Not Know About Your Data</a></li> </ul> I use Facebook to communicate with my friends that I wouldn't normally talk to, and that's about it. However, I question its use as a whole when they do stuff like this. I don't want facebook using my information to lie to my friends and tell them I've used a service when I didn't.
