In simplest terms, it is social networking.

One can have a Facebook page and put almost anything about yourself on it.

People find it a way to get/keep in touch with people one hasn't seen in a
long time or keep friends and family updated about ones doings.

One might call this the ultimate "video party line", reaching a huge number
of people with the least amount of effort.

That's about as neutral a response I can give you.

Is it advantageous, that depends on how one uses their Facebook page.

I know employers are starting to check these social networking sites to get
more information about prospective employees.

Hi Richard,

If Employers are checking these sites what is to prevent theives who steal 
identities
from finding out about you to do their thing? What is used for security?

Thanks John
