My Email Marking BackUp: JoelComm.com - February 16, 2010 10 Ways to NOT Be My Facebook Friend

Home > Newsletter

How did Facebook ever get to be so big?

Honestly, the site is chock full 'o so much garbage that it has become the new MySpace.

But beyond all the stupid vampire and zombie games, there is a solid social media site that can be useful for businesses.

For over a year, I have peaked at my 5000 friend limit.

However, people close their accounts or unfriend me from time to time. So I've always got just a few slots open.

Now as of this writing, I've got over 4600 people in my friend queue. They are waiting to be accepted or ignored as friends.

Obviously, with Facebook's 5000 friend hard limit, there is no way I can approve everyone. So I have to be selective.

But there's just no way to friend everyone, even if I wanted to.
