With all the technology and social media out there, how do you decide who you are going to be "friends" with?!
For me, here's what I do on the various social networks:
Facebook - I prefer to KNOW you. If we have a bunch of mutual friends that are either from high school or networking and I'm not 100% sure who you are, I will typically accept your friend request. If I'm not "impressed" by status updates, I will defriend the person. If I have NO idea who you are and you don't send me a message, I will not accept your friend request. Of course everyone can become a fan of my Fan Page!
Twitter - I don't have my twitter account blocked and anyone can follow me who would like. I am selective about who I follow back. I follow a good percentage of the people that follow me but if it's obvious you are spam, I will not follow you. I do not auto-follow anyone and I DON'T like auto-DMs once someone follows you.
Linked-In - I accept almost all invitations to connect on Linked-In. Currently this is probably my least visited social media site.
What is your "criteria" to determine who you will be friends with on these social media sites?
