I remember once Ron Bates telling me that LinkedIn is like a pyramid, and therefore being at the top of it is the best place to be. It might be true, but not so true in my own case. Like most of us, I have a presence on LinkedIn, Plaxo, Facebook and the likes. In addition, invitations to join other networks keep pouring into my inbox. So far, I have got very little from LinkdeIn (even less from Plaxo!), at least directly. I use Linkedin to check someone's profile (it is like googling the name), and to get answers to my questions (my favorite); not much really. I would be really interested in hearing from others about their linkedin experience. Interesting post.
