bernhard and i have had many discussions about this, so maybe he'll chip in. 
when the entire cohort of your nephews is looking for jobs, future employers 
won't be able to discriminate against them due to their facebook pictures; 
indeed, someone _without_ such a documented personal life may be seen to have 
inadequate socialisation ("what were _you_ doing while your friends were 
partying and getting drunk? sitting alone somewhere... maybe you can't really 
work in a team?")
