FB Research, FB Stalking, or FB lurking...what are your thoughts?

So one of the things I recently talked about with a person what constitutes FB stalking and what I call FB research.

Think about it,,,research is when you are trying to determine if David Smith or Jane Smith is the right person that you really want to recconnect with or friend request or accept a friend request. It can also be to see what that friend that you know is up to but you don't really want them to be in your business so you are not FB friends. You just want to be nosy and see what is up with them.

FB Stalker - Now the term stalker was started to be used by the media in the 20th century to describe people who pester and harass others.  Stalking can be defined as the willful and repeated following, watching and/or harassing of another person. This usually is a series of actions that occur over a period of time. So if you are doing more than just quick FB research described above then maybe just maybe you are a FB stalker.

Or wait maybe you are a FB lurker? Lurkers are those people who read but do not contribute to the discussion; or maybe they do randomly and that is when you realize there have been lurkers on your FB page. 

So what are your thoughts, seriously please share and comment.
