Actually a great idea. Have your friends create one too, and you'll have a complete clean, employable, social graph.

Isn't that really what LinkedIn is? Which is why no one asks you for your LinkedIn password.

The savvier kids have been maintaining multiple Facebook accounts for years: one where they friend their parents, family, church pastor, etc., and the other (under a pseudonym) where they have fun. It's like the social equivalent of a TrueCrypt hidden volume. Plausible deniability is the name of the game.
