If he could learn to care less (for comparison, he should not try to read all of Twitter), then Facebook would not present such a problem.

- zalew 16y ago7 screens of text about quitting using facebook? He seems kind of obsessed by the idea. > My Facebook page was maxed out at 5K friends and was very active. 5000 friends??? No wonder he got tired of it. Before I passed 100 I rarely used the 'hide' button, now I use it more, and I think hiding people and blocking apps (and sometimes turning chat off) is a good way to make fb experience less annoying.
- robryan 16y agoyeah, 5k friends would be a horrible experience unless they were mostly hidden from your stream. You would never see anything you close friends posted.
- zalew 16y agoI don't get what's the point having 5000 people in the first place, unless you use fb only as a publishing stream (but that's what fanpages are for).
- scott_s 16y agoThe author of this piece is a professional blogger. Having 5,000 FB friends is probably natural to him because marketing himself is part of his job.
