Marketing Headhunter Faces Off Against Facebook
Just received an email from Harry Joiner saying he was booted off of Facebook for following their instructions to upload his email program's address book. Apparently, his 4,600 Gmail names were too many for Facebook even though they state no limit and accepted his request to email the "make me a friend" request. Why they don't just code in a hard limit that would be acceptable to them is beyond me.
Harry might be interested to know that I did pretty much the same thing with my Outlook address book. Not to one up him, but my address book was, ahem, much larger. But when I uploaded I only asked Facebook to send the "make me a friend" requests to people who are already Facebook members. I didn't want to start selling the merits of Facebook to others, even though I think it has tremendous potential for all.
By the way, if you're interested in becoming my friend, and I could definitely use some as life can get pretty lonely, here's my Facebook badge:
If you want to be my friend, click on my name, then the link to "Add Steven as a Friend," and then follow the instructions.
