imageThe list of social media properties Baseline Ventures’ Ron Conway has backed includes Twitter, Facebook, Digg, Seesmic ... and it goes on and on. So he should have a slew of Facebook friends and Twitter followers (especially entrepreneurs that are hungry for VC), right? Not at all.

Conway has no friends or followers on either network—because he doesn’t use them. “I don’t use Twitter, or Facebook, or any of the other startups I invest in. I advise them and add value. I don’t spend time using them.”
