This is a good point. It’s like asking the question: “What is more important in politics? People, or ideas?”
People respond very differently to that. To some it’s people, and to some it’s ideas. That is why you have Xitter-like microblogging which is focused around people, and reddit-like communities which are focused around topics/ideas.
