Despite the fact FB hold the largest database and Google users are largely untracked I would argue that consumers use Google to seek information prior to a purchase decision whereas FB users are primarily freebie seekers looking to network and be entertained for free. In my own social networks I know my wealthy friends have no interest in FB but my less wealthy friends love it. The less wealthy tend to enjoy time wasting. Having said that, both groups are consumers and the mass market is the less wealthy group. Money can be made anywhere.

What they have done is genius. You post an ad on Facebook, users click on it to visit your site and they can register to your site in one second by clicking on Connect with Facebook.
