Not just Geoff's article but also the comments/views of the other 3 are very informative. Looking forward to see more information on internet search to extract CONTACT details (email and phone number)of passive candidates.

The second, major issue of having to manage TOO many sources remains (not to mention keeping up with the various social and business networks springing up like weeds). I would add two more points to the list on HOW to manage the information. Streamline how you pull candidate data from sites like LinkedIn or even job boards by using tools that are Web 2.0-savvy. If you’re like most recruiters, you’re using an application tracking system. Make sure it can easily capture the data you are spending time to find! Use Internet tools to help manage social media and news feeds. Tools such as Friendfeed, Spokeo, Google Reader will allow you to aggregate and manage all your social media communications.

Every day we are swamped with new requests to join this site or that site - some are noteworthy, but most are not. I don't have a set procedure yet for balancing all of these sites and tools, but it is starting to become a higher priority today than it was two or three years ago...

By breaking it up and staying on top of a few sites a day it makes it easier to manage all of the different sites. We also use Google alerts to inform us if new information has been put out on the web on any of the searches we run. This allows us to stay on top of all new info that hits the web without having to run the search over and over again.
