I don't know about the other sites listed, but I just learned at the
fabulous drupalcon SF that you cannot store the Facebook data anywhere, and
you aren't event supposed to pre-fill it in forms. The idea is that one
should use the FB API to display the FB data - instead of storing it locally
for any amount of time. (I'm pretty sure the main reason for this is to
ensure that everyone is seeing the same thing, and there aren't various
versions of old data floating around)

A big thanks to Mr. Dave Cohen for his Facebook session and BOF!!
