Please help us all out and either point us to, or send us, some Rules of Social Media Etiquette. Thanks, Robert P.S. Actually, this isn't one of my pet peeves, but that was an irresistible segue from your post into what I wanted to ask for from you. Thanks for your tolerance.

I've Tweeted/FB'd/LinkedIn/YouTubed and leaped across terabytes and through virtual detritus in order to engage, inform and run with the wolves of ROI. Yet as one who is forever seeking the relevance and the nature of human communication and connection, "The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer". You can thank a pre-Internet guy by the name of Edward R. Murrow for that one. And thank you for what you do, Jeff. I feel less ADD now. Jeff: You’re my new Social Media hero!

I am exhausted trying to stay on top of all of the new social media sites / tools, etc. Let's stick to four and lay down some good ground rules on using them effectively. And your comment about checking your list twice before sending out an invitation is best practice direct marketing list management...just new vehicles.
