don't I know you from?
I get all kinds of Facebook friend requests from people I don’t know. Not even a clue who they are. Very very rarely, a person will have their twitter or blog on their profile, so I can venture a guess of how or why they would want to be my friend. The rest of the time, I am left in the dark, with only an opaque “you have x number friends in common”. That tells me nothing, as I...
