http://www.globalchange.com Linkedin future of business online community or just a phase?
Linkedin is the business version of FaceBook or MySpace and had 11 million executives signed up by June 2007. But does this business inline community really work? Most Linkedin users have less than 50 contacts and don’t use it much. Recruitment, sales, marketing, promotion — all possible but what will be the dominant purpose of Linkedin? Most contacts I’ve had are people wanting introductions — to other people they don’t seem to be able to get to any other way. Comment by Dr Patrick Dixon, futurist, leading authority on global trends and conference speaker.

LinkedIn is totally free unless you want premium features.

Unlike Facebook (which is free), Linkedin appears to be quite costly for monthly use. Will the cost be reduced soon?

I was able to find him on LinkedIn by having his name only, I found out what company he works for,position, pretty much everything about his work. I went to his company’s website and in the directory found his phone number…too much information!I deleted my LinkedIn account immediately.

I think the fact that LinkedIn requires true and correct info only entered on profiles, unlike Facebook, or myspace where you could make up a nickname and sometime maintain privacy, this fact prevents people from using on LinkedIn. Two months ago i was looking for a database specialist, in Germany , who 5 years ago! created a database I am using…
