How selective are you in accepting Foursquare friend requests?

That was the nature of the question I posed to my Twitter followers earlier today.

I've captured and included the responses as screenshots below, and most fall in line with my strict approach.

Here are my guiding principles:

  1. If I haven't met the requester personally, I ignore the connection invitation.
  2. If I otherwise have any reservation about sharing my actual location with the requester, or the person doesn't past my "Beer or Breakfast Test," I also ignore.

By design, my Foursquare network is smaller and more intimate than my Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn social graphs. And that's exactly how I want it.

Update: I missed including this response from @simplyv: "@BryanPerson I'm not. None of my rl friends locally use Twitter or foursquare. So I'll add anyone. I'm all freaky like that"
