I partly understand why. The backlash you get as a ‘popular poster’ can sometimes be as depressing as reading tabloids about yourself and often show the worst parts of humanity….
But I personally still read it all. All the comments, all the mentions, all @ replied on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google+. I still find posts to create, add my own thoughts and share them on multiple platforms every day. I still plus one comments that people take the time to write, hangout publicly, Retweet others and follow back any person who makes any kind of effort. It doesn’t take as long as you would think it would…. Some others do too… , +Robert Scoble , and are some names that come to mind that still “take the time” even with huge audiences.
I really do think its sad that so many ‘famous people’ hire teams of people and still somehow can’t mention names directly, interact with you directly anywhere or follow you back on say Twitter. What are these teams doing all day long? If you are famous and you don’t have the time, get your PR teams to at least PRETEND to interact as you with say… an odd facebook like eh?
What do you think? Do you care if the “famous person” is really there or its just an intern / PR person? 🙂

i don't know any famous people to ask.
i no it
I would prefer if the person would actually make the posts and interact with their fans and stuff. But I understand that they're busy doing something, and they probably don't have the time to do it.
people who are curating social media posts tend to deliver content, instead of simple conversation. - it's not so bad if that's what you enjoy.
I quickly drop those accounts once I detect fake PR teams.
You're still here :-)
amanda blain is famous the old school way. by being herself. not a team of social media experts curating her posts.
I don't have a team of people posting for me. I think you need to be real and authentic on social media if you want sustainable audiences.
And just won the internet right now with that comment.
..or fake being real good...or real fake being good ..huh ! Pretty señorita ;).... don't know
I kinda accept most celebs don't interact and have interns doing the work. those that I follow I follow for news on them, not to connect with them and accept they're just using social media to broadcast their message.
tho it's great seeing celebs who do get it and do interact. my faves are on twitter Bruce Campbell & Stephen Fry who both make good efforts to engage with their audience as well as providing fun content.
