- Facebook wants to know where I live so it can show me more advertising.

- Google also wants to know where I live so it can show me more advertising. However, Google also uses that information to provide useful tools such as directions, search, etc.

- I am much more likely to give Google my info because they give me all of these extra useful tools. Facebook provides nothing except a place for my mom to see photos of her grand kids. AS soon as she is on G+ I will be dropping FB.
