I am now LinkedIn

Posted: August 24th, 2007 | Author: Bone | Filed under: Interesting Links, Internet |

I’ve had a LinkedIn (Facebook but for you career) account for ages and done nothing with it, so today after Shimone (that’s right home-friends, I’m namechecking someone you don’t know) invited me to ‘connect’ I thought I’d update my profile and see who in my address book was a member. All in all, it was about 35 people, but I don’t really understand LinkedIn culture yet, so I only asked the people who I’ve got a decent working relationship with to ‘connect’ with me.

It’s really cool when people I don’t physically know but respect add me on social sites, because it suggests that they like me for more than my ability to shift a few of their tees.

Oh, and is it weird that I’ve described myself as an ‘independent fashion analyst’ in my profile?

    You remember that quote from a while back: ‘I’m such a good dancer, that must be why girls think I’m gay’. Well, Mr Independent Fashion Analyst, I’m beginning to think that they might have a point!
