Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Joe Schmitt: Who are the most hated characters of Web 2.0?

joeschmitt:

We were tossing this around the office today, @taylorlecroy and I. Among those already on our list:

  • Tweet thieves
  • People who Instagram every meal
  • Photo over-taggers
  • Habitual Facebook cause inviters
  • Tightly knit #FF circles
  • People who only check your blog to try to take things out of context and get you in trouble
  • Farmville & Mafia Wars players
  • Daily mugshots
  • People who don’t star my tweets
  • People from Twitter who friend you on Facebook but don’t follow you on Twitter
  • People from Twitter who friend you on Facebook but don’t tell you what their Twitter name is
  • Salesmen who connect with you after one vendor presentation and then ask you to recommend them on LinkedIn
  • #hashtag #every #single #word
  • Monsters who try to excuse their bullyish behavior with “it’s just the internet”
  • Push every 4square check-in to Twitter and FB
  • People who click every link and then blame “the Inter-net” when their FB account is hacked
  • @guykawasaki
  • People on Twitter who have become more popular than me
  • Oversharers who subsequently complain because people know too much about their business
  • Grammar Nazis (except for me)
  • People who post photos of their ugly baby every damn day
  • Pokers
  • People who find love on the internet and live happily ever after, rubbing your nose in it with every cute post
  • Require reciprocal follows
  • People who push everything everywhere— Twitter, FB, 4square, Instagram, LinkedIn, Posterous, Tumblr, Blip, etc.
  • Words With Friends cheaters

Who would you add? Reply, reblog, and retweet with your favorite villains.

  • Amateur Politicos
  • Aspiring rappers who ask you to check out their homemade music videos on YouTube and RT to your followers

  2. ryall- answered: I’d add social media consultant ‘experts’ who filled twitter and facebook with ‘corporate presences’.
  3. morganwrites answered: People who request a LinkedIn connection, after they (in a interview) insulted your line of work, gender, and intelligence.

    tout their business (for free) even though it is...no interest to your followers. Clueless...

    This is hysterical!
  10. kirstensdesk said: I think you’ve covered them all. And I want to put a heart on every bullet point here.

  12. ashamedtosay said: People who complain about follows or being unfollowed and People who demand to know why you unfollowed and call you out publically. The first and second are often related.
