As I said, I know it's a free form of promotion, therefore useful to some extent, no matter if I like it or not.

...because I hate the Facebook craze. Was Abandonia on myspace 3 years ago? What's the difference then? It's a portal for "socializing", so finding new dates or small talk. If it stayed this way, I wouldn't care, just as I didn't for myspace.
But now even serious institutions have Facebook thing on their webpage. Take my city library. Do they seriously count on more people to borrow books if they create a Facebook profile?
And since everybody is jumping onto Facebook bandwagon, they abandon forums (remember starwars.com case?) and instant messengers. This is just as handy as people changing constantly their cell phone numbers (I remember old times, when telephone number changed only if someone moved into a different flat).
