Facebook is Japan's nothing. It is not that well known in Japan.

  I know a few Japanese people on Facebook: those married to foreigners. There are practical limits to the scalability of this customer acquisition method. [Edit: I need to remember not to make Japan jokes because people take me seriously. FB accounts are also popular with Japanese people with recent experience abroad and those with many foreign friends, at least in my social circles in central Japan (like Kansas, minus the white people). Of approximately 70 people at my previous day job, two admitted to having Facebook accounts when asked for a show of hands at a meeting, and one of those was me.]

    I have a japanese guy in my friendlist on facebook, but that's not the issue here. And yes, this way of customer acquisition won't take facebook too far.
