  • Back in February, plenty of us started to think about and discuss social network fatigue: the idea that people are getting tired of joining new services and having to reconnect with everyone they already know. Some have argued that this isn't a real problem outside of the Valley or that people are happy starting over as they move across networks. Social network fatigue is not, however, a made-up problem. If anything has changed, it is that we're now all much more tired of new social networks and the political battles to be "open" then we ever were earlier this year.
