I'm not sure that 5000 number is so deliberately chosen. Take the Tweet from Mark Zuckerberg in March 2009: "I find it funny that it's on Digg that I'm here. I'm looking forward to when people can have unlimited connections on Facebook soon!" - http://twitter.com/#!/finkd/status/1297171671 http://twitter.com/#!/finkd/status/1297171671. Then again, it's not happened yet, so maybe they changed their mind :)
- edanm 16y agoI'm not sure it's so deliberate either - but I think that's what their strategy should be, at least. By the way, the number 5,000 is a great number: it doesn't really matter what the number is, as long as there is a ceiling, it's pretty clear that you're not supposed to add anyone and everyone. On the other hand, 5,000 is large enough that most users won't realistically hit it.
