Rather, the neocortical constraint seems to be on the number of relationships that an animal can keep track of in a complex, continuously changing social world: the function subserved by that level of grouping will depend on the individual species' ecological and social context.
They explicitly state that when the number of individuals is much larger than this, it becomes difficult to control their behaviour by means of peer pressure alone (Hardin 1988).
Terrien and Mills (1955), for example, found that the larger the organisation, the greater the number of control officials that is needed to ensure its smooth functioning.

 Preoccupations: Dunbar's Number
there is a cognitive limit to the number of individuals with whom any one person can maintain stable relationships, that this limit is a direct function of relative neocortex size, and that this in turn limits group size...
However, it does show that for a group to sustain itself at the size of 150, significantly more effort must be spent on the core socialization which is necessary to keep the group functioning.
This doesn't mean that people don't have 150 people in their social network, but that they only keep tabs on 150 people max at any given point.

 Jeff Freeman: The Dunbar Number   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The logic is something like, “Someone smart has established that the optimum social group size is 150, therefore we should make our online game support guilds of about 150 people, expect guilds to have 150 members on average, balance content and so forth with the number 150 in mind.
In his blog entry titled The Dunbar Number as a Limit to Group Sizes, he has some nice charts of guild sizes in Ultima Online, Allegiance Size numbers from Asheron’s Call, and personal observations of other member-size averages (and apparent limits) in assorted other online groups.
In order to understand why online communities are smaller than the Dunbar Number, we must keep in mind that the Dunbar Number is not a property of the group, but rather it is an attribute of the individuals in the group.

 Meatball Wiki: TheTippingPoint   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
In this book, Malcolm Gladwell discusses the idea that for a group of up to 150 members, there is a "community memory" that works such that either you know how to find something out/do something, or you know the person who does.
Beyond 150, you no longer know whom to turn to, and need to go through intermediaries, and a communication breakdown occurs.
By the way, the scalar "150" may be empirically true for the circumstances which the author tested against, but it doesn't get to the heart of the matter.

 Week beginning 26 October 2003 (Interconnected archives)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The argument goes roughly like this: the maximum cohesive social group of 150 comes from the size of the primary network - intense friends - which is itself correlated with the neocortex size (in relation to the brain) and the proportion of time spent on social grooming.
Since the number of grooming partners is necessarily limited to one, this means that the limit on the number of listeners should be about 2.8.
Sommer (1961), for example, found that a nose-to-nose distance of 1.7m was the upper limit for comfortable conversation in dyadic groups; this would yield a maximum conversation group size of five individuals with a shoulder-to-shoulder spacing of 0.5m between adjacent individuals standing around the circumference of a circle.
