#22> you.me.we. will receive the following info: your public profile, friend list and birthday and your friends' birthdays.
Why would I give someone else's info to this application? I'm not even sure it's polite.
P.S. The issue here is not that I need to give some information about myself, I can perhaps deal with that, the issue is that I'm giving information about my friends. It make me feel a bit like a snitch :-)

#23FYI with firefox + adblock + ghostery I see only the static landing page with broken "about" link.
Thanks, i have only really tested with chrome , firefox and mobile safari all without special plugins (i didn't even know ghostery was until a minute ago)

#24More appropriate title: "Does Facebook know your friends better than you do?"
The answer: "Of course."
All of these are random facts about my friends I wouldn't bother to commit to memory. It doesn't say anything about me

it is a questionaire about yourself and the app needs the data to create the questions. it is plain javascript with no backend attached to it. the data only gets sent back and forth between your browser and fb. none of your data ever gets stored on "my" server. hope this helps.

My intent was that the results, albeit admittedly abstract, make you think about yourself. i believe who your friends are does say something about yourself (or at least provoke thoughts like: is it a coincidence that most of my friends are gemini?)

#30Earlier quoted context omitted.
Incidentally, I think the question would be better framed in terms of the median age - ie. "Do you think the majority of your friends are older or younger than you?"
yeah, i was on the verge about median age or average age... about the age error, i dont know why that happens. i calculate your age by year but that should still return 30 and validate to "right".
mine was wrong to. I am 34, my friends average 32.XX. I put younger and was told wrong.
