The minute I found out they were going to cap bandwidth, doctor traffic I got off the incumbent trail. I have two DSL connections - both from independent companies and while they are expensive, I have never once had to think about bandwidth. I buy video shows from iTunes store, watch Hulu, and MLB.com. I have no-TV.
In fact, I have not had TV for a long time. I think when HD video shows up - and it is coming - on the Internet, I am going to go for that also. I backup my computers online, I email constantly, and more. So no - I don’t like to think about how much bandwidth I consume.

Allen's major issues were around the fact this list was immovable, and his feeling that it highlighted people who are inactive on the site. I've clearly been active, and I'm not opposed to getting an unfair share of attention. Besides, it's new, and I wasn't one of the original nine, so give it a little time to bake. :-)
That said, I do think they should make change and have it customized based on interests, or at least, get the option to see other accounts.
Reply | Original | Permalink | Share | TweetI’m still skeptical, but not in the negative way. I’m just eager to be educated as to how this would work with all the other things an organization’s marketing team would intend to do in social media. Mind you, there ARE blogging agencies and we don’t poop on them as much. Is this the same thing, only smaller? Can you prove lead gen from it?
There’s room to be educated here.

If I put myself in the “non-early-adopter” shoes I see that I’m falling further and further behind things I don’t understand, or care about.
Who are all these people on Facebook and why do they spend so much time there?
Not to mention Twitter, FriendFeed, Feedly, Google Reader, Wordpress, and all derivatives and competitors.
It’s all overwhelming.
Try taking someone who isn’t into this world at all and trying to get them into it. Impossible. But we’ve been here before. Early adopters show the way.
