Facebook Friend or Foe?
JANUARY 19TH, 2011Earlier this morning the blog post “Unfriend, write or die” by Peter Shankman was circulating around our office and I found it particularly interesting, especially since I would have to say I definitely agree.
If you aren’t going to interact and use your social network—what’s the point?
With the popularity of Facebook and Linkedin, my personal and professional networks continue to grow, but I try to only have “friends” on Facebook that I actually stay in contact with. It may seem like a lot of work to “interact” with all of my Facebook friends, but I swear it is way easier than you think.
Wishing my friends a happy birthday, liking their status or commenting on their photos, are ways that I stay in touch and avoid “ignoring” them.
Read Shankman’s article and who knows you may reconnect with someone or even “defriend” them, but either way you will be making the most of your social network.
