Your network should be a reflection of i) you and ii) where you want to personally/professionally want to see yourself in the next phase or season of your existance.
Just because one person decides to follow you on Twitter or befriend you on Facebook doesn't not automatically give them the right to be followed back. Derek Hall was being given a hard time about not being reciprocal about every Twitter follow he was getting. A debate then ensues about this and an army of #TwitterSnobs is born. Me personally am happy to be one.
It's not about the quantity of follows, it's about the quality of follows.

I did follow everyone who followed me. But I found I didn't talk with most of them, and they were just cluttering up my stream.
I often missed things I would have liked to see, but friends and people who interested me.
So now I am a TwitterSnob, and quite happy being one!
Lorraine,
I suffered from the same problem. I call it "Signal to noise", the amount of posts that come in compared to the amount you really need to see are very different.
If folk want to follow me then that's all well and good. Just don't always expect me to follow back because you have decided to grace my doorstep :)
