  5. Please, never just say "hi" when you message someone you never talked with before.

    Instead, in addition to a polite greeting, say a little about yourself and why you're messaging the person.

    This creates a connection right away, makes you interesting, and gives a topic to discuss. This also makes most folks less likely to simply ignore you and/or get annoyed by you.

    Want to make friends? Don't just say hello. Instead, give a reason for the other person to want to talk with you.

    Also, NEVER message just to sell your goods/services.

    Hope this helps!

  8. Outlook really needs a single "no really, just turn off ABSOLUTELY ALL of those stupid notifications that warn you 15 minutes in advance of every meeting" button, so you don't have to hunt down all of the ones you've already received and squash them one by one. 😡
