Professional Online Network - LinkedIn
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you’ve most likely heard of various Social Networks. Two of the most popular are MySpace and Facebook. The demographics indicate that it is mostly the under 30 crowd making the most use of these services.
Social Networking is a hot topic today, they are amongst the most utilized websites. The concept is great, because it keeps you connected to a lot of people, and often enables people to re-connect to you if they have lost touch.
Online Social Netorking has always been geared more towards teens and kids. It moved into college age adults when Facebook came out. Now it’s reaching working adults. The most famous and popular Online Social Network for adults is “LinkedIn”.
Unlike the day-to-day chatty social networks of MySpace and Facebook, LinkeIn connects professionals with other professionals. Here you can post your professional profile and connect with other people you have work with, worked for, or who have worked for you. The better jobs are often not the ones advertised, but the ones you hear about through your networks. LinkedIn provides another way to keep and expand on your network.
I see more and more people I know using the service.
