Wow, I’ve been spending some time recently trying to learn and build some contacts on Facebook and Twitter. I’m using those two because by updating one, namely Twitter, I can automatically update my status on the other. And, besides, lots of people seem to be using Facebook as some middle path between MySpace which many marketers feel has a bad reputation for doing business and some of the purely business networks.
But just as you start figuring your way around ONE of the networks, it seems a contact of yours joins another social network and you get all these invitations from somewhere else.
The insanity has to stop somewhere, so I suggest learning your way around ONE and building a significant contact base before joining multiple ones and never doing anything on any of them.
If you’re looking for NEW contacts, after all, for business, etc. it will be a long time before you exhaust, for instance, the 90 million active users on Facebook just because you got a new invite from, say, your buddy on bebo.com
