Getting "poked" by a potential business partner is probably not the best way to seal a big deal. However, one way I've found to work around the current "get hooked up" Facebook model is to join groups that are related to websites I manage. I've joined 5 or 6 groups that have over 400 members each. This means that I have direct access to my target audience, even if they are graduating from High School in 2011. I look forward to updates about Facebook changes. I agree that Facebook needs to be more “business networking” friendly.
