ByWalter Wimberly

LinkedIn, the job Networking site, has just pasted the 200 million user mark. While it’s older than Facebook, it took longer to get users. This is in part because of its focus on professional networking, rather than pure social.

Most of the users are in the US, and many are in technical fields. But a good profile can get you found my employers and companies wanting to work with you. I’ve had several legitimate contacts in the last few weeks myself.

If you want to make the most of it, make sure you connect with people, and fill out all the sections for the best chance to be found and contacted.
