Drinking from the Fire Hydrant
Social networks can devour your day before you realize it. I’ve heard from some people that they need to, “catch up on all of the Facebook posts,” or “read all of the latest tweets on Twitter.”

Note to LinkedIn: Stop trying to be like Facebook
Over the last few months, Facebook has seriously exploded in popularity. Meanwhile, LinkedIn keeps chugging along. But something I’ve noticed about LinkedIn is that they are “borrowing” a bit too much from Facebook.

Add Old Email Addresses to your LinkedIn Profile
One of the interesting things about social networks is that often, you never socialize in real life. Tonight was a little bit different. There were probably over 100 people who came out to Rembrandt’s to actually see all of those people that they had connected to.
A good suggestion that I learned from the event was [...]
Which Blogging Tool?
From Q&A on LinkedIn…
Which blogging tool would you recommend and why?
