When 2 people have a fax machine, the utility of the fax is minimal. When 2 billion people have a fax machine, the utility of the fax is profound. Here's the next stage. Learn how to tie all your tools together, letting them act as filters for each other, letting data flow among them. Go into your MySQL control panel and "select distinct user_email from wp_comments" - then export all the commenters from your blog to LinkedIn. Those who accept your invitation (and it'll probably be most of them) should be filtered and imported into Twitter and StumbleUpon.
