Anybody here on Yahoo: Linked In?

[Tuesday Afternoon]

How does it work exactly? Do you like it?

Does it give contacts access to your email list?

TIA for any info.

1. I don't do the Yahoo version of chat or anything, but I do have profiles on Linked In.

And I did let them use my address book to look for contacts.

I haven't regretted it, I wouldn't have allowed FaceBook to do that.

2. what is the difference between allowing Linked In to have access

to your address book and allowing Facebook?

:shrug:

thanks for replying :hi:

on edit: I went ahead and did it. I am Linked In now. It is different from FB.

3. Well, I think FaceBook is more sneaky in their practices, less respectful of rights.

And, I have a friend-- former intern with us, who moved on to Linked In, so if I ever have a problem I'll call Patrick.

Linked In made sense for keeping track of people I meet in my different business and educational endeavors, if they change jobs I can still find them.

The address book use worked out really well.

FaceBook, on the other hand, I use for friends more than anything, and I like to keep that separate from work.

4. I dropped my FB ...

I don't blame you for wanting to keep it separate :D
