Social Networking GaffesFreddy Woo writes, "My school bully just friended me on Facebook!" No doubt he pokes him, and then demands his lunch money.
Personally, last month a scantily clad young woman confused me with her fiance, with whom I share a first and last name. I'm still not sure she's noticed, but she's going to be mortified when she does.
What's the biggest mistake you've made using a social networking site?

Not really a gaffe - just odd.Completely safe for work........but possibly not something you want in your viewing history. I was wondering a while back if there were any other websites similar to Facebook, but more interesting. So I typed in www.twatbook.com - which seemed like it could have lots of interesting possibilities. Up came the website for a very dull Industrial Gas Flow Measuring company. Very strange and very disappointing.

hmmm...A quick whois says that twatbook.com is registered to one Gavin Squire in Walsall, while effectech.co.uk is registered to the company itself. Perhaps a disgruntled employee or customer has registered the domain and pointed at their ip?

I was going to say that maybe T.W.A.T is some sort ofacronym used within the gas flow measurement industry, but your explanation sounds more viable.
