Last week I received an invitation to join Linkedin. Though I'd heard of this networking site, I was not at all familiar with it. The site's function is to enable people to meet one another through mutually known connections. If it's true that everybody is separated by only six degrees, than here's a way to get to know everybody.
Questions to Discuss:
1. Why would people want to meet other people? (Students might develop different categories to explain why people might want to meet others.)
2. What's the difference between LinkedIn and other sites like FaceBook or MySpace?
3. If you were the developers of LinkedIn what one or two Web 2.0 widgets would you want to add to LinkedIn? Why would you want to add these specific widgets?

linkedin is ppure marketing. They get bunch of numbnuts to add their contact information and invite their friends. Then when you try to contact the people "in your network" they try to charge you. Its just a static archive of names and resumes....boring. Try Facebook or even congoo. Congoo.com has industry news and you can contact people for free. FREE...revelotionary.
