The social graces of social networking - Macworld

The social graces of social networking - Macworld

Excerpt:
"A couple of days ago, I discovered that one of my Facebook friends was not actually who I thought he was. He had a common name—we’ll call him Dave—and the invitation he’d sent me indicated we’d once worked together. I decided he must be old Dave from the Art department and clicked Accept. But as I watched his activities appear in my Facebook news feed, something seemed odd. Was the guy I knew really the type to launch daily zombie attacks?

When I finally took a closer look, I realized this person had hundreds and hundreds of friends—and I had no idea who he was. I’m not saying this Dave hoodwinked me into ratcheting up his friend-count. I’d just never thought about the possibility of a stranger requesting to be my friend. I realized I’d stumbled into a whole new realm of etiquette issues—dilemmas that come up when you’re using social networking sites."
