Not long ago, I received an invitation to join Naymz, a social networking site. Prior to the invitation (from someone I didn't know), I'd never seen or heard of this particular network. I'd only spoken with this person once before, and I had only a hazy understanding of what she does professionally, but she asked if I would recommend her work. I couldn't recommend her or her work in good conscience because I didn't know her or her work well enough, so I couldn't agree to her request.
Why, you may ask? So, when I clicked on the link she provided to join Naymz.
It's all about integrity for me. I suppose I could have been a really nice person and answered "Yes" to both of the questions above. But I doubt I would have kept my integrity. I doubt it would have been real. It would also be misleading to others who may be relying on what I recommend and suggest to them.
When creating a social network on any given platform, you must ensure your integrity. What I interpret this to mean is that if you recommend someone who other people may consider hiring, you must be truthful about your recommendation. Don't make things up and try not to be a nuisance.
