I had one but he doesn't work at the company anymore so now he's just a normal friend.

Opposite for me, i only have co-workers and former co-workers as friends. I had to create an account for a work project, and so I had to friend coworkers. Now I can't friend my real friends.

No, because I always bitch about work on FB.

I just create two different groups of friends. I restrict what my work friends can see.

The founder - has stolen the code for Facebook from his buddies. That makes him a dick that should not be successful and trusted.

Here is his DickiPedia entry

"College students nationwide began to capitalize on the ability to catalogue pictures of themselves doing keg stands, and to find out the relationship status of people they wanted to have casual sex with."

LOL! It's only funny because it's true.

Yeah, and it's going to be really awkward this afternoon when one of them gets fired...

I do, but have them on a work list... which is not allowed access to certain things.

Privacy settings. You can create groups of friends and then change the privacy settings for each part of your page by removing access by certain groups of friends.

My work friends can't see my basic info or my status updates.

 

[AreaCode707]

Only if I actually hang out with them outside of work (2-3 people). Everyone else I connect with on LinkedIn, if I like their work performance.

You have the wrong networking site.

 

[Kelemvor]

Of course. But only the ones that we go to the bars with after work and things. Or group is a very relaxed and open place.

don't mind him, he's just old... so he uses the whole emo thing as an excuse in every Facebook thread. Nobody his generation uses it so it's really of no use to him anyway. If he has friends/relatives constantly posting personal pics and updates then he'd see the real value of a site like this.

As for responding to the OP... I really don't want to friend them but a couple have come my way and I'm not the kind of person to ignore but since being friended not a single correspondence has happened so I really don't know why they bothered. I have friended co-workers that I actually talk to outside of work though. I've blocked names matching my boss, etc. so hopefully they won't even see me on there. It's not about being paranoid, it's about not having to worry at all about what is being posted/said "accidentally".

I also run a worldwide popular hockey fan site and people have found me through there. Dude, I'm not your friend. You don't need to see personal pics of me and what I'm doing at 1230am. Easier to ignore since I never knew them.

You know what I've found most interesting? Everyone from my HS class is friending each other. People you never saw talk to each other and who were at totally opposite ends of the spectrum. It's quite a phenomenon. Turn it into myspace why don't you? Thanks for the add!!!! Anyway, digression...
