Remember I said lin,ked in has a GBCNer...

[lurknomore]

...as someone I should connect with?  And she and I are in totally different industries, have no connections in common, have never emailed off board, hell, we've never really interacted on TN/GBCN?  I seriously only "know" her from her being a fellow TN/GBCN poster.  Well I just logged in today and not only is she back in my recommended contacts, but now she's featured on my page in a box that says "Increase your profile views by up to 2% by connecting with this member."  WTF.  Scary stalking by !inked in.  I wonder if there are others in my suggested contacts that I just don't recognize.

My Facebook page randomly suggested to befriend my landlord! I'm totally sleeved as to how it made the connection.

My FB page suggested I befriend the woman who gave me a med.ical pedicure back in March. (And yes, I just put a dot in there because I am really paranoid after one of my posts a couple of weeks ago.)

Oh, v! It is amazing, if traditional pedicures don't do enough for you. This woman removed my really, really thick callouses, the ones that made me feel like I had little pebbles in my shoes when I walked, with a little scalpel and spent a super long time sloughing off all the other dead skin on my feet. I did this over three months ago and my feet still look pretty good.

Hmmm... I'll have to look into this!

Now I wonder how many of those names I see that I'm like "who on earth is this??" is one of you all.

It somehow connects to emails in your google contact list.

I think it connects to your contacts too. I called the parent of a student from my cell phone, and she popped up in my friends I might know list two days later. Creepy.

I thought this happened to me with Irene Adler... But then she pointed out that we had emailed a long time ago in a group email re: a gtg.
