Every time I give a social media presentation, a number of audience members will express their horror at the openness and magnitude of Facebook and Twitter.
Well, attendees, your concerns have been heard - enter FamilyLeaf. FamilyLeaf is designed to be that small, closed, private network for your closest compadres. Check out the demo.
For your smartphone, there is Path. A Path network, allows you a maximum of 150 friends.
PS According to the article in the New York Times (by Randall Stross) that inspired this post, Dunbar, is alive and kicking as a professor at Oxford. He further elaborated his theory as follows: "social networks resemble a set of concentric circles: 150 people constitute the outer boundary of friends, 50 is the limit for trusted friends, 15 for good friends, and 5 for best friends."
150.
I can handle that.
