LinkedIn

LinkedIn appears to be a fine initiative. I was pleased to find that it actually had a category for "Libraries," rather than just "Education" or "Community Services" or similar. Yay, them - a promising beginning.

I do feel a bit over all the online "social networking" (how many MySpace friends does anyone need?!) - but LinkedIn appears to be achieving something a bit different.

This is my somewhat basic LinkedIn profile.

Looking under "Swinburne University of Technology Colleagues" seemed like a good place to begin, so I selected some and sent invitations. I also found a few who weren't in this list by searching their names.
