1) I want to facilitate dialogue between influencers and followers, not dialogue between friends. You don't need thumb-ups/downs for the later: there's not enough interest to justify that.

2) I don't want to create another social network, and there's little chance influencers sign up here anyway. Hopefully letting influencers engage through their established channels make things easier for them.
