Dave your critique is a strong support for the limited network of trust.<br />
<br />
It doesn't work on LinkedIn because as Harry Joiner says, LinkedIn is a meat market where you want maximum access to a large number of potential candidates.<br />
<br />
But in the recruitosphere where you already have access to everybody, you don't need them all to be your formal pals.<br />

So here's an idea for a quick way to judge who should be a "friend".<br />
We ask them if they want to be on our mailing list.<br />
<br />
You're not insulting someone if you refuse to be on their list. Everyone gets more mail that they can handle so if they are interested in yours you have to have something very substantial in common right now.

Regardless of what I have loudly said elsewhere... I know there is value here... Somewhere. Maybe we are still in the days like those described in the BIO channel's show on Alfred Nobel...after he invented dynamite they just sold it off the shelf and there were multiple bombings a week because people just use the stuff completely indiscriminately... As Jason says...these discussions will help us all figure it out.

Thanks for your work on the network. I'm not here for friends. I don't have time. I pop in and out for good information, and to hear what other recruiters have to say about timely subjects. You are right to throw people out of here. Friends shouldn't let friends type drunk.<br />

Sean hits it right on the money. It's difficult to do, but you need a strategy and a purpose for every social network you use. It's okay to have backups, and it's okay to not accept friends.<br />
<br />
It depends on what you want to accomplish. Now personally, I want a lot of friends because I intend to retire early by spamming all of you with Viagra and Cialis pills. I know you'll buy them from my emails, because so many of you are trusted friends.<br />

<br />
Actually, that's a pretty easy way to get people to defriend you. Send them a spam email and then send another saying it wasn't an accident and your account wasn't hacked.<br />

Faisal,<br />
If those are ads and they don’t have any vulgar content, how can they be unnecessary? They might be useful to someone somewhere. After all, the sender is doing his/her job.<br />
When I don’t want to receive any emails or ADS I usually send them a reply "<i>please remove my email address from you mailing list</i>"<br />
<br />
Recruiting Technology is Not Anti-Relationship!<br />

This wasn't my intention. Let me correct myself...<br />
I am receiving those unnecessary ads. which irritates me alot. :(<br />
<br />
I just wanted to see RBC more useful and productive. There should be something through which we can report a person if we find him doing something unfair.<br />
<br />
I hope now I am clear.<br />
