Counterpoint — this depends on the area of interest and the people. That networking and being "anonymous" don't go well is not necessarily true always, and need not be true always. One can have a handle/username/name without revealing one's real name to everyone on Facebook, and yet reveal one's real name through other means (out of band communication) to specific people at specific times for specific needs.
