Bob, Facebook does indeed give me a list of "friend suggestions". It also gives a list of "friend requests", which I take to imply that those people have themselves initiated such requests, unless they have somehow been generated by Facebook. I am deeply suspicious of all such sites.

Actually, the question is an academic one, since I have no idea what the point of Facebook is, nor the purpose of "friends", and I only use Facebook to look at the WP site, usually with considerable bafflement as to how it is supposed to work.
