There are lots of people talking about the value of social media marketing and all the amazing things you can do with it.  As someone who is trying to use these various tools and bending them to meet my needs, I have a suggestion for the three musketeers (Twitter, Facebook, & LinkedIn) to make life a little easier for those of us trying to use them to reach customers and prospects. 

Please, please give me some type of list management capability.  I have no way of exporting those that have become followers, friends, or fans.  I don't want to spam them, I just want to manage them centrally and know when a new follower/friend/fan signs up or, more importantly, leaves.  LinkedIn apparently allowed a .csv export but has since disabled that functionality.  If this feature exists in any or all and I am being dense, please let me know.

I like the ability to share news, updates, and special offers with these self-selected groups and understand that If I abuse the priviledge of being connected, I will be dropped aburptly so why not give me a way to monitor and manage them?

Oh, and if there is an innovative start up out there doing this, please let me know.  I am a buyer.
