Just today, I got a Linkedin message from a former bank president I used to do business with.   I was glad to hear from an old friend, but I think the only reason he had time to goof around with Linkedin is that he is now out of work due to a merger. 

So I started poking around with it, trying to figure it out.  I also recently started with the Face Book thing, haven't got that cracked yet either.

I don't know if I have the time or inclination to make it work the way I guess it's supposed to.
