Spot on @tressareid! I think a lot of people also lose sight of the fact that it's logistically impossible to actually keep up with 1000 people's content. If you can sincerely follow 100 people's work daily... then you're doing an amazing job.
Now if we reverse that, if we want to be sincerely followed and read our contributions must be in the top 100 of someone who follows 1000+ people. So quality and standing out comes to mind. Especially if you work at something that plays to an audience, like blogging and writing.
In the end, it's better to be "all that" to a small group of people than "more of the above" to the masses.
=^..^=
Great point made about keeping up with that many people's content, very true. And also a great way of putting striving to be the "Top 100", that is exactly what our goal should be.
