Personally, I like the Facebook links and the information I get from them. I look at Facebook every day at least once. Although there have been issues, like Amma said, it's a matter of how much information is made available. It is, after all, a public forum.
It seems to me, that as a business, Facebook would be one more way to reach an audience since your information would be visible on pages of people who had linked to you. Facebook is now more populous than most world countries.
