Someone should write a book that outlines the appropriate boundaries for FaceBook.

  I can do that right now, in quick blurb format. * Don't accept a friend request from somebody you're not interested in as a person. * Keep friends with the people that have cameras. Memories are wonderful things to have, and your friends may have more pictures than you do. * Don't update your status unless you've got something interesting to say. * If you poke somebody, ask them out later that week. Do not poke somebody you've been friends with for longer than a month. * Tag people in notes sparingly. Don't tag people who aren't fans of "pass it along" notes. * Only add applications that add value to your experience. * If you see a news story in your feed from somebody you aren't interested in, unfriend them. Possibly write them an apology if they're somebody you think you might friend again later. * If you're friends with Scoble, ignore all these, tag in as many notes as possible, tag photos of your pets with his name so he sees them, and poke, SuperPoke, and Poke-a-mon him to your heart's desire. Any publishers interested? ;-)

    Re: step 3, A few million twitter users would beg to differ.

      The difference is that Twitter is one-way. On Facebook, if you want to use it you have to consciously maintain the friends you've got, because in theory they see everything you do.
