Here's an easy one somebody could write up over the weekend:
You apply for a job with a resume. The resume lists the dates you worked various jobs.
So you just go out and comb the social networks to find all the posting times for this person and cross-reference it with their work hours. You've just made a predictor of how much time they'll be spending on your dime trolling the net.
Now perhaps that's only 1 in 20 secondary factors you look at in hiring. But I bet it's easily one of those 20.

Now if you could poll how long I spend on google reader in a given day...
