ABCNEWS–…After being hounded and hounded, I reluctantly joined a few of these services and watched my personal network of associates grow. Pretty soon I was in enough circles to get invites from very obscure people….When you log on you get a listing of your network and the network of each person in your network. The first thing that happens is that you begin to notice that many, if not most, of these people have bigger networks than you have. You look like a total loser if your network is smaller. So you start to invite people….What makes matters worse is that because the networks are growing for no good reason except ego, most of the people on them never check in.
