With everything we love about social media, there’s always still something to complain about. Even at South by Southwest Interactive, where social media is the flavor du jour, I was able to find plenty of people willing to tell me what really annoys them about social networking.
At the Mashable House Party at Buffalo Billiards last week, I simply asked people, “What’s your social media pet peeve?” Above, in this 1 minute 49 second video, are their answers.

Mine is how Social Media has hijacked what I thought was a music festival, SXSW, but apparently now is a marketing festival. Can you buy $40 Pinterest T-shirts there?

David, I think I've got too many that I lost count ( laughs ). I'll just have to start with the most annoying of them all: Slamming me with promotional messages without even bothering to say 'hello'… or not checking my social profile to address me as a 'he' ( not she, ma'm and the likes ).
Great video David. It moved. Loved the use of the bites. Hope you had a blast in Austin.
Cheers!
