"..hover the mouse over a hyperlink to see the URL."
doesn't work on facebook's links as everything is scripted into bottons created with flash, and the like and nothing is displayed when you do this. Also the link in the address bar doesn't always change when you click on things. In order to change this they'll need to strip the FB site down and get it back into basic HTML, and java script.. .while i do realize it's nice looking design is what seems to be giving it's popularity, but; it'll ALWAYS be a security hazard as it is.
between that and it takes forever to load the facebook site. probably because they have the site's domain and server in two different places. ever notice that when you login and the status bar tells you connecting to ak.static.fbcdn.net, and b.static.ak.fbcdn.net waiting for reply instead of just facebook.com? Those are two reason's i rarely ever log into facebook. i've always been a bit suspicious of that, since the place the data comes from doesn't match the domain in the address bar.
