I found this Letter to the Editor article while doing some research for my paper today, and thought it was really intriguing. On the heels of what we've been reading in The Facebook Effect about the process of turning Facebook into a lucrative company, I found the writer's comment about the investors and advertisors peering through the windows of our relationships (such a good analogy. It's perfectly creepy) an interesting take on the business aspect of Facebook. While I don't consider this article to be a contradiction to what is supposedly Mark Zuckerburg's vision for Facebook (enhancing relationships), I do find the idea of facebook's advertisers intruding on our relationships to be thought-provoking.
