Steps

- Friend someone you don’t know?

- Poke someone?

- Manually search database

- Pay $10 for “InMail”- Write Awkward

Email

- Create profile then search. Same functionality as LinkedIn

Problems

- FB for social not professional networking

- Only interact with people you already know

- Mostly used for public profile or online rolodex

- Cold emails often ignored

- Job Search sites are inherently NOT social.

- Reactive vs. proactively making introductions
