I remember when in my social sphere it was expected that you keep up with livejournal. I had 300+ friends and it was tough. Feelings were hurt. Now with twitter since I have close to 2000. It is no longer expected but I miss much. I end up turning to facebook more often (which I hate.) but they are at least attempting to contextualize. And more importantly - events are separate. I hate missing face to face interactions the most. I try to use these tools to facilitate more real life interactions when I travel. hence me liking plancast.com I would like foursquare more if it worked properly on my blackberry wo texting charges :-) I wish there were better tools for the twitter lists. something drag and drop from a pool of icons... C'est la vie. I prefer at this point to never disconnect. but instead to turn down the volume :-) exactly.

Maybe the next step in the evolution of social media should be better selective focus. There are tools already for this, to some extent: the fans of multi-column displays like TweetDeck are often basically championing this; I could see using Twitter Lists in something like this way, too. But those are both way, WAY more cumbersome than just stepping away from a cocktail-party conversation. “Typically bad communication interfaces or bad privacy implementations created by software” is an interesting thought!
