Thing 14

Linkedin. Have heard of this before (always thought it sounds rather Scandinavian) but never explored. Signed up to see what happens. Immediately received messages to confirm acceptance from friends mostly in business, who must wonder what on earth I'm doing on it but are too polite to ask. And from one academic who when I met her last night expressed surprise that I found her on it as she could not remember joining it and doesn't use it. I can see that it might be very useful in the commercial world but am not convinced that we would use it much in a college library.
