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 quite on a social networkBut it is certainly about networking in a sense.
Used to work with a girl who didn't like her manager at work. To be fair this was probably justified with the managers snippy comments and condesending tones. The manager had no idea about this and thought they were best buds. Sent her a txt from a major festival saying how it was a great day and the sun was shining etc.
Not great to txt that to somebody below you in the work chain when they're working really though.
This girl was so angered she immediately sent me a message which included the words "management cunt" in it.
Guessed the result yet?
She even tried turning the phone off mid sending. No amount of bullshitting got through it though as it was crystal clear who it was regarding.
After that her social networking days at that job were numbered and only lasted a few more months.
Apologies would be in order if I had any length.
