Dutch Airline Lets Passengers Choose Seatmates Off Facebook

I can't decide if this is cool or creepy: a Dutch airline wanted to let people pick their own seatmates, so they turned to Facebook.

Using a new feature called "Meet & Seat," KLM Airlines allows passengers to browse the Facebook profiles of other passengers in hopes of making each flight a bit more enjoyable by sitting next to someone you might want to meet or have something in common with. Here's the story from Yahoo news.

What do you think- is this something you would do or does it offend you?
