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?

The perils of 'news feed'Firstly, apologies for newness (and probably remarkably unfunny story but here goes).
I once fell out with a flatmate at university over politics (as you do at 3am in the morning when you're pissed off cheap Lidl lager because you can't afford anything else), and in my drunken stupor I buggered off back into my room to write an angry, angsty note on Facebook (ashamed I am!), not realising that slagging her off would be visible to her because of the news feed.
So the next morning at about 11am, she knocked on my door, and I got a swift kick in the bollocks for 'slagging' her off. About six days later she slowly forgave me but then we fell out again a year later for good over other issues, mainly because I really liked her and she didn't share the same view in return.
Length? After that kick there wasn't much to write home about...
