It's possible we could use Facebook's API to do this discovery automatically. I'm not terribly familiar with it, but considering the user is going to give us their password, it seems likely we could ask them FB to return their FB username. We might even be able to repurpose (or at least examine) some of their iPhone code. -Colin
