But I believe that even when you're very popular in social networking, that doesn't mean that you talk to everyone, I'm an example. I can add as friends many people who request that to me, but if I don't want to answer their questions, leave comments on their profiles, or try to contact them in some other way, how can I say (truly) that I'm 'connected' to them? I'm not supposed to. I can't truly say that I know that person or that they know me. We are only related because. That doesn't mean we know each other entirely. We may have followers on Twitter, but unnecessarily have to talk to them or befriend with them, most like when someone introduces another person and we never see them again.
