I really want to understand the Facebook friend recommendation process.
I have a few theories:
It remembers who came up when you search by email (this I'm pretty sure since people in my contact list show up as recommendations after I log out)
It remembers who you searched for and recommends the searcher to the searchee.
It's really HAL
Anyone else have a better understanding or theories? It really is a bit creepy how it can suggest random people you know.

My Facebook page recently suggested I might like to be friends with the single lady down the street, the one known for her messy affair with a married man. Mrs. Moonie was not amused.
