    I suggest not, unless you aren't really friends with your friends on Facebook. The problem is that most people don't want to feel like they are being scammed, and their instinct regarding affiliate programs is that "this is a scheme, he's trying to take my money."

    This stigma can put a real hurting on relationships.

      This. I wouldn't try to sell affiliate products to my friends, unless of course they are interesting in affiliate marketing!

      Perhaps post a status about affiliate marketing, test out the waters and see if any of your contacts are actually interested. Once you've got them interested sell them the product - shoving links into peoples face and expecting to capture their interest (and their money!) won't produce results.
