Facebook and other social sites are so prominent nowadays that if they aren't using it I think that could be considered weird.

Everyone knows that employers look at Facebook so it could seem like they are trying to hide something if they don't have it or maybe that they are antisocial or something. I don't think they necessarily care about what bad shit is on there, but I would think an employer likes to see someone who's social and interested in things. It seems ridiculous and there's privacy issues,etc but I can understand the logic of it.
