or you could just use jquery...ive no idea how you'd use only the  
"client side" portion of GWT.  from what I could tell it seemed like  
the entire server-to-client is spit out from a single monolithic  
compilation and there was certainly no easy way to just use "the  
client".

i think there are alternatives which would result in easier to read  
code.   jquery can go a very long way.

theyre tremendously complex and reliant upon special build tools.    
facebook AFAIK is just php and is a more compelling client side  
experience than anything I've seen google do.
