Ive seen a lot more activity on LinkedIn lately. I think some of it has to do with the end-user spike that a new feature can bring, in this case LinkedIn Answers.Â
It also might have something to do with my personal widget marketing strategy. (Translation: I have my LinkedIn profile plastered published everywhere)
But more importantly, the thing Ive noticed about LinkedIn is how well it works at painting a picture of what social software and social networking is all about.Once you invite a client to be your connection on LinkedIn, its amazing how fast they get it after you explain how theyve quickly become part of a vibrant and interactive social network.
Whether you think its useful or not, you cant ignore the ramifications of things like LinkedIn. Theres been a ton of lists on how you can use LinkedIn, but it always fascinates me how each client comes up with their own take on its usefulness. But thats just the point. Get people thinking about how they use social software and let them create.
Oh, and if you think we should connect, let me know
