Yup, it’s true. I have an addiction to LinkedIn. (LinkedIn is a social networking/Web 2.0 application that keeps you link, networked and connected to people you have been around in the past. Mostly work - but some college, but this is not the party site…that is Facebook.)
I had signed up for LinkedIn a while back…but never took the time to fill it out. Then, I kept seeing it bubble to the top of del.icio.us (the social bookmarking site) and so I finally broke down a put all my stuff (past jobs and schools) in - and I was hooked.
I am up to 17 connections. I want more - I spend time each day thinking of more people I can connect.
One of my favorite parts is the ability to reconnect with colleges you have lost touch with, like my friend Julie. I hadn’t spoken to her for three years…she had gotten a new job and email - and I had no clue. We connected on LinkedIn and we had a one hour email ping-pong match the other night.
So check it out, let me know - and by all means, send me an invitation to “link”.
