  1. Very interesting, I'm looking forward to reading it becasue I just signed up for an account but am kind of discouraged by the fact that a lot of their networking features are 'premium,' and therefor, pay-for. Unless they change that, I see it surviving only until the Facebook generation takes on a more corporate roll and will either use myspace or another social media site for business that will make linkdin go the way of myspace.

  2. Thank you.

    I am also looking forward to my project too. I've been registered for LinkedIn over a year. But I actually start using it for two months. It helped me to connect with my colleagues from couple of companies. Let's see what I come up with my research.
