Social Networking Pet Peeves and Annoyances

by Rhett Smith on June 3, 2008

I know we all have our pet peeves when it comes to social networking sites and technology, so I thought you would enjoy this article, The Top 10 Social Networking Annoyances.

Here are the 10 they talk about:

  • MySpace kitsch
  • The worms crawl in
  • LinkedIn is up tight
  • Mobile social networking still kinda weak
  • Ning: Too much porn
  • Do I know you?
  • Thanks for the ad! Here’s some spam
  • Breaking up is hard to do (too hard)
  • Zombies, pirates and other pointless Facebook applications
  • Multiple social network syndrome

Definitely they are spot on with MySpace and it’s impossible to read profile pages with everyone’s crazy designs.  That’s one of the main reasons I moved to Facebook.  But now Facebook profiles are getting a little impossible to read with everyone’s applications that they are putting on them.

And it’s a bummer that the social networking site that I built Collective Muse on, Ning, is known for too much porn.  Great.

Do you have any pet peeves?

I am so glad you mentioned that about Ning…I was thinking how amazing Ning is and was about to spend a lot of time uploading and putting together a thing for my blog….but I’ll have to research and talk to you about that more. That is a problem. Youtube has the same issues…one click away from porn.

thanks Rhett!
