I stayed away for a long time due to TOS issues but I can say that one benefit 
for the personal account holder is in fact the ability to limit what is seen 
to friends only.

That does not apply to something like this though.

I think it may be that we seem to live in a world where proprietary and patent 
pending are selling points for most rather than the turn offs that they are 
for me.

all the best,
