A little something I am good at: ranting!

So... it probably doesn’t come as a surprise that I am not a fan of Facebook and the likes. I have been on LinkedIn since the early 2000, way before it became popular.

My frustration is with random connection or even just acquaintance. I don’t connect with people I don’t know and/or have not done business with and I certainly do not want to read daily updates from connections that use LinkedIn as Facebook or Twitter.

So why on earth would people send, to someone THEY DON’T KNOW, a connection request with the generic LinkedIn connection request message? I mean, if you want to connect and get introduced to someone, shouldn’t you introduce yourself first and say why you want to be a connection?

Am I the only person that gets really annoyed by this?
