Duncan - Very nice indeed! I'd like to see Arrington try to whip up something as slick as this ;-)

What a very fine and heartfelt post. I had a similar experience with another company (MSFT). It was amazing, but then it wasn't, and I had to leave. Life's rich pageant continues...

Onward!

This is fascinating - and yes absolutely no offense intended for Scoble, et. al. I suggested this with tongue-in-cheek myself a little while back on FF (http://tinyurl.com/5uj5zn). I got spanked by some echo chamberlains - tho Scoble himself agreed.

Thank you for writing this post. The trick-or-treating has been great, but I'm getting a little sick on the candy myself. I'm giving it a rest.

Re: How Many Friends Do You Have?

I see that too. It does beg the question, whether socnets are redefining "friend" Instead of being people you're interested in personally, it might be people whose ideas interest you.

Maybe it's all the same thing, but I don't know.

In the case of friends, connections, followers - both online and off - totals are less important than ratios.

I think no matter what you're doing, if the total number of people befriending you is dramatically greater than the total number of people you've befriended, something's not right.

When I see this occurring in my own social networks, it's a signal for me to listen more and talk less.

Agreed.

To whom on this team can I send my resume?

This was a great post - and one I never would have read had I not been scrolling through FriendFeed. I endured the FF learning curve and now "get it.", but it wasn't easy. It's all great here in the echo chamber - just wish I could invite some of my less web 2.0-fluent (and more interesting) friends to the party. So far those friends think I've lost my mind - they may be right.
