I am an advocate for building a community and developing friendships online for business development. But, when I hear that my son is “friending” everyone under the sun, including his older sister’s roommates and her friends of friends, it makes me wonder.
If we are not using Facebook for business, then why are we so obsessed with gaining new friends on Facebook?
My son told me he has 550 friends. “Five hundred and fifty friends,” I shouted, “you don’t know that many people. Come on. You need to be weary of who you friend on Facebook. There are lots of crazy people out there.”
“If you think this is bad, check out my sister’s site,” he said. “She has 650 friends.”
When I walked into the kitchen, my husband was on his iPad. “What are you doing?” I asked him.
“I’m looking for more friends on Facebook,” he said.
So, I ask you, how many friends do you have on Facebook and do you communicate with all of your friends?
