  i'm WAY on the side of active in a few. But if you're in this space for a living, you need to at least be familiar with them.

  i just don't know that you can be a valuable participant if you're spread too thin.

  i say you best be an expert within a few but have familiarity with all of them. that way you can cover your bases.

  ping.fm made me realize that... there are many & I'm in quite a few... but I'm trying a new experiment with that

  should be aware of/familiar with as many as possible, active participant in those you think bring most value.

  if sm is about community, you can't be a good neighbor in all sm. unless you quite your job and just do that 24/7.

  active in a few is more important, but no reason you can't still be present in most if not all

  You can only be active in a few, and only need to be unless you're like us -- needing to know what's available when advising clients.

  I've got profiles everywhere but am only active here, on Twitter and Facebook. Occasionally the SWOM group on Ning.

  I have to agree, I have lots of profiles, but I am only active on a few sites.
