Are you LinkedIn?

I signed up at LinkedIn about 2 years ago (September, 2003 to be exact). Only recently did I start updating my LinkedIn network, and have realized how much of a great application this is.

Privacy and a Great Design

One of the great features of LinkedIn is the fact that it is private. Only people that know you can get connected to you, as they have to know your email address. And how can you go wrong with that design. Not only does it look great, it’s very useable.

Connections

So, I am constantly contacted about Flash freelance opportunities, and every so often, I just can’t take a job due to workload. So LinkedIn is usually my way to find a couple replacement suggestions for the job. If you have a LinkedIn account, add me to your contacts. My email is josh [AT] joshdura [DOT] com.

  1. I just tried linkedin, and as you say, it is really great. After importing my contact CSV file the system found out that I have 1 linkedin contact. Then I invited him into my network and once he accepted it the system showed me 43 new contacts! Via one man I could get in contact with 42 professionals. That’s really great. I’ll work on my network, and stay in linkedin. I’ll also invite you ASAP.
    Thanks.

  2. I actually did the same thing as you Josh. I’ve been a member for a long time and never updated until lastnight. I’ll try to keep in touch with everyone this way.. Between this and Plaxo I’m set.
