I'd like to call Facebook to the stand

With Valentine's Day but a sweet memory this week, I thought we'd take a look at the other side of love, divorce, and the dubious role Facebook can play in the ensuing battles. PC World has published a great article "Marriage On The Rocks? Better Stay Off Facebook" that cites some frightening facts for all the Facebook fanatics out there.

According to a survey by the American Academy of Matrimonial Layers (AAMl), 81 percent of its members have, in the past five years, seen an increase in the number of divorce cases using social networking evidence.

Facebook leads the pack with 66 percent of survey respondents citing it as the primary source. MySpace and Twitter made a splash as well, with 14 percent and five percent, respectively.

So, as we are always warned, watch what you do on social networking sites! Not only could bad behavior cost you your job, your friends, or your relationship, it could lead to nasty divorce court problems and "evidence" you probably don't want anyone to see.
