I too use LinkedIn daily for various means and methods of finding the most qualified candidates. What I find amazing is that if they actually used it to not only network (as you pointed out) BUT to actively L-E-A-R-N through discussions and by networking among various groups, then they might NOT actually need to find another job in the first place! For me, LI is not about the number of connections I can rack up, it's about the value of each of those connections. In my humble estimation, this is vital to both my professional existence and my job security. Thanks for letting me share my two cents. Lori @loriburke Naomi:

I just connected with Lori (we were trading Red Sox chat) and will definitely look for the Mashable piece. Re: all the different social networks out there - I totally think you're right. It's about picking the few that matter to you and doing those well. It's a little like dealing with social media in general, right? Hard to step away but you have to limit it otherwise it will consume you. :) Thanks, Kathy! I just connected with Lori (we were trading Red Sox chat) and will definitely look for the Mashable piece.

I also think it's tough, there's a balance you have to strike. I don't have time to participate in EVERY network that I'm a part of as often as I'd like, or as you suggest. But something is better than nothing, right? I find it particularly helpful when you can link accounts, for instance between Twitter and LinkedIn, that way your updates stay fresh and maybe even spur a conversation, with minimal effort. @wileyccoyote is a shining example of how it's done right!! Another one of our social media rock stars at INgage Networks is our Director of Human Resources, @LoriBurke. She was featured in a Mashable article, "7 ways to get more out of LinkedIn," that you and your readers might find helpful, too. Feel free to connect with her for more insights!
