For those who are into business networking, who here is on LinkedIn?

Funny, I've had an account forever, and haven't used it really for a few years. Was just this minute looking at the new tools they opened up and going through the steps to update my profile and send out a bunch of invites.

I am.

Yup

Sent you an invite...

How useful have you found it to be?

I still can't quite understand linked in

I'm pretty sure my first effort will be to invite people to various events that I host.

It's good. My local Chamber uses it pretty extensively so that's helpful. It's also good staying in touch with the dozens of friends I've encountered through my many stages of life.

It's a site I wish I had more time for... I like the answers section, and really wish I had more time to use it. I think it would be a great way to get your name out there if you're looking to help others in your field.

I've gotten a few messages from head hunters, but other than that, it's a professional facebook at the moment.

Is that some sort of banned substance too?

yes

I am.

It's a useful tool for me to network with current and former bus associates. It's also great for linking with common people in your field that you do not know, but would be helpful to know.

Yes. Find it very useful.

Yes.

Keep in contact with friends/colleagues/etc.

I've been contacted by headhunters on there too.
