"owes me about $50"

By my calculations, you owe him $150. Why? It's not like Facebook has done no work. The infrastructure and code required to allow you to poke, like, and chat with your friends isn't something simple. Also, bandwidth isn't cheap.

In addition to all of this, Facebook is free. To even think that you would deserve "a cut" is just another example of the entitlement mentality plaguing society today.
