I value my privacy and I like staying connected with my friends and family.
In this regard, I find Facebook (and the internet in general) to be a good and bad thing - it helps me stay connected, but it also dilutes the control I have over who gets to know what about me.

By using these applications, Facebook people might be inadvertently or unknowingly be divulging information to otherwise total strangers.

I have to believe that some of them are relentless in their nagging of my friends to add more people to their database as I've gotten too many invites to use applications I have no interest for.
Thankfully, Facebook allows me to block applications!
Here's a list of Facebook apps I've blocked:
