<p>Does anyone think that LinkedIn is any good at networking?</p>
<p>Does anyone have any positive experiences from using the website?</p>
<p>I am not to sure about simply publicly putting my information online for anyone to see is a good idea.</p>
<p>Thank You</p>
<p>LinkedIn is definitely a valuable tool, if used properly, and if used sparingly. You want to target friends, friends of friends and alumni first and foremost as a means of breaking the conversation barriers and building contacts. </p>
<p>Regarding your information, you’re not just posting it on a wall in a bathroom, you are posting it on a professional social networking site - you are sharing information with others sharing the same type of information as a means of expanding your network.</p>
<p>PM me if you have any other questions.</p>

<p>I fail to grasp the concept of shelling out money to network!!!</p>
<p>Well you don’t have to pay money, you can certainly network with a lot of people if you’re in the business even if you don’t pay.</p>
