I also only follow like 200 or so right now, so it seems manageable still. I can’t imagine these people that follow thousands!

I find it fantastic but find that I really need to split it into three groups so I don't miss anything - news, personal contacts and business contacts - or are you just incredibly well organised?

I agree with your synopsis. The connections can be very informative and valuable. Like any tool, one needs to use it correctly. It's obvious that you are doing just that. It's been nice to connect.
