  • DO be careful who you friend on the network.
  • DON’T accept every friend request.
  • DO see who else has checked in to the venue you are at. It’s a great way to meet local people.
  • DON’T auto-feed every check-in to Twitter if you are a power user, you will alienate your network.
  • DO add context! Include a message, especially if your posts feed to Twitter or Facebook. Share something interesting about the venue or add another message so your followers know why this is important!
  • DON’T violate your customer/clients privacy by checking in when you shouldn’t.
  • DO be cautious of your personal safety.
  • DON’T check in at the same time and place every day if you are concerned about personal safety. Be aware that frequent check ins can indicate a pattern of your physical whereabouts.
  • DO add tips for other users in your network.
  • DON’T check-in if you are supposed to be somewhere else (like at work!)
  • and most importantly…DO use common sense.
