Web Worker Daily » Blog Archive Open Thread: Social Network Fatigue? «: "Over the weekend, there was a brief flurry of blog activity because some of the popular kids decided they’d had enough of Facebook because they were too popular and couldn’t handle all the activity (no, I’m not going to link - if they can’t manage the traffic, why make it worse?). This led to some broader discussion of social network fatigue. It seems that some people find the social networks:

1. Facebook,
   
2. LinkedIn,
   
3. MySpace,
   
4. Twitter,
   
5. Jaiku,
   
6. Pownce, or
   
7. what-have-you -
   

to be such a burden that they get overwhelmed and need to drop out to reclaim their lives and retain their sanity."
