Good points!
I’ve only recently become aware of the importance of networking, and this series has been a good checklist to make sure I’m not coming off like a tool when making introductions. :)
Thanks!

Amen especially to the first one.
I was contacted and INSULTED by an individual who had the audacity to even request to follow me on twitter (I am private on twitter). I had to get FUGLY (UGLY) on them and tell them to STEP off. I appreciate this blog post! I have to give a hug to @10000words for posting your post on twitter.
Thank you again!

Hi Blake,
This is a nice list. I’d like to add one more — Don’t plagiarize from the blogger. It’s not a good idea:

Thanks for putting this together!

Great tips! I would only add my big pet peeve — when the request e-mail starts with “we love your blog” — from people who have never previously posted a comment and, often, are presenting submissions for products that don’t fit. It’s doubly obvious that they haven’t read it!
Linda Merrills last blog post..A Christmas Gift to you
Some great tips there, Blake. I’ve had to spend a fair chunk of time responding to marketing emails, asking to be removed from lists I never opted into. Quite the pet peeve.
All the very best for 2009!
Thanks for the comment love guys/gals. I know that these were pretty simple and logical, but it just helps to be reminded of them sometimes. ;)

Great. These are just as valuable as all the ‘dos’ .
