You can create friend lists on Facebook. I don't use them (I just hide people who spam) but they seem to do what you want..

Friends list on facebook are painful things to use, edit and apply to various posts. Each action tends to be multi screen bonanza and are never ever on by default, and things can still slip through. If facebook would clean up their groups functionality (which I doubt since it goes against their goals) then it would be a better competitor to google +

pretty much only thing you can do with lists on Facebook is assign people to lists.

The feature exists but it's inadequate for properly filtering content.
