When are we spending too much time with social media? What are the tipping points for how many sites we need to join, and how often to check them? Am I missing something by not joining, say Google+? How would a Tumblr or Pinterest account help me?

I still find Twitter a bit confusing. Who to follow? Some people tweet so frequently. How do I keep up, and separate the wheat from the chaff?
There are social media manager services, such as HootSuite (another product to learn), some of which offer free or paid plans. (And companies are hiring SMMs.)
So now I’m spending time figuring out which sites I want to be on and effective use strategies.
