Hmmm…I ran into an interesting dilemma. Like the other one hundred zillion people, I have a Facebook profile too. Initially my intent was to socialize (big surprise) and started accepting friend requests from anyone and everyone. I guess that is the goal, after all it is a social network. However, my problem now is that my personal friends, my business acquaintances, my current coworkers, my past coworkers are all in my “friend” network. I realized that I maybe social but I am not very tolerant of the following facts:
- Too much useless “Status Updates”…
- My coworkers knowing about my personal friends…
- Too much noise in general…
I wish there was a way to categorize all my contacts. (Of course, in many cases, my past coworkers have become good friends.) I wish I could have create multiple accounts (still thinking along the lines of email…). So I looked at Facebook help and I was surprised to find that creating multiple accounts is actually against FB’s terms of use. Wow!
Seems like FB Pages is the recommended way to go. Let’s see….
