About LinkedIn

Some people tell me that because LinkedIn encourages you to create your entire professional resume, and keep updating it as often as you want to, people essentially use it to look for a new job. I don’t agree. While getting a new job or finding someone you want to connect with to further your busines interests is a huge advantage, I believe maintaining a comprehensive profile actually filters out a a lot of general chit chat type contacts and therefore makes LinkedIn an effective professional networking tool.
