The presenter pointed me out as an example of someone who has a social networking strategy - evidenced by the fact that I ignored the friend request of my firm on Facebook. <BR/><BR/>For me, Facebook is strictly friends and family.

I've even taken it one step further when I receive requests on FaceBook from "old hardly known college people." It's amazing how people think just because they graduated in the same year, they're friends. <BR/><BR/>Sorry, I'm like you, unless I really know a person, they don't get in.<BR/><BR/>RusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
