We went from quality to quantity. A lot of people have 500+ connections on LinkedIn, 60,000+ followers on Twitter and thousands of friends on Facebook. Brian Solis talks about engaging with these people. How could you possibly engage with all these people if you are not a Brian Solis and have not written many books? Maybe in a year or 2, people will start to un-connect on LinkedIn, un-friend on Facebook. I am not against connections but for you to have so many connections with people you have never met, never known(or will know) seems unproductive.
i have 500+ and only really talk to like 13 of them but they added from my youtube, flickr and PS3 accounts, i dont upload my life story like most do. i just put a profile pic every now and then and promote my photography and stuff and my photoshop services. it all depends how you use it either to share your life or just befriend and share ideas and works.......
