I use Facebook much like I use LinkedIn: as a way for people to find me (and sometimes to find people I have lost touch with).

To keep my Facebook profile somewhat "alive", I have my Twitter account set to automatically update my Facebook status and I use the Wordbook plugin for WordPress to automatically post my latest blog posts to my Facebook Wall. Email alerts on Facebook are configured to notify me of the rare events when someone requests friendship or responds to my Facebook status, so I rarely even need to login.

Googling your name doesn't return your personal web site?

Yes it does. Try it. Google "raamdev" or "Raam Dev".
