After all, in my daily life, I don't stop and talk to every person I see - but the number of conversations I'm involved in online sometimes make me fell like I am. I know there are ways to handle this information flow, but I'm still working out what works for me. Unfortuantely, part of my solution seems to be limiting the amount of informaiton to a more resonable rate. But then, like a kid who fights falling asleep, I'm afraid I going to "miss something." If you are overwhelmed with the flow of information, what hope do you have of participating in distrubuted conversations with success? Part of the problem for me is the shear number of conversations.
