Wait, why are Facebook's birthday reminders important?

• pawn 12y ago
  Some people like to be told "Happy Birthday" even if they know most people only "remembered" because of a notification. Sometimes, it can be useful to be reminded of a birthday for somebody you actually want to get a gift for.

  Its gives you an excuse to remind someone that you exist in their friends list. Socializing/Networking is actually more important on LinkedIn than on FB, because people usually have (or have had) social relations with FB people IRL, but on LinkedIn you need those excuses because otherwise you msotly just have business relations
