Are Facebook ID Cards In Our Future?

photo1Facebook hasfiled for a trademark on the usage of the word "Facebook" on business cards and, more curiously, "non-magnetically encoded" ID cards among other things. If granted the trademark would protect using the word Facebook in the specified formats, not any actual invention.So what if Facebook just wants to protect use of the word Facebook on business cards? Well, it seems like this trademark would cover that and a whole lot more including "business card and identity card design services," "printing services" and the ominous, "facilitating social and business networking through the provision of data for use on its own business and identity cards."
