Whose popular these days? Twitter? Facebook? Goodreads?
Staying in the loop of society's hip, cool, what's happening-now forums isn't easy unless you're online 24/7.
I remember a day when yahoo groups was the place to be. Hundreds would join to promote and talk, to party and joke.

Facebook on the other hand wasn't supposed to be that way, and maybe for some it isn't. But for the professional that has a vested interest in cyberspace, we're still seeking to hook-up with anyone and everyone who'll "Like Us". Now while no one wants to feel left out and seem unpopular, the point of "Liking" someone was supposed to be a way to find out how many real fans we had.
