4- Can't cope with so many social networking websites?

We've asked Alberto Nardelli, the Social Network Manager at UnLtd, how people can
possibly manage when they have to maintain a profile on a dozen of social networking
websites, such as Facebook, Bebo, My Space, LinkedIn, E-cademy...

He gave us a few tips and some news too about the new UnLtd website: www.unltdworld.com
