I'm among those people who see LinkedIn as an intimidation thing, Jay. That place, sometimes, I feel like, "Would I be able to get something good here?" I just scroll through people's posts and reading different milestones of how LinkedIn helped them achieve this...and that..the list goes on.
LinkedIn is a good place to get jobs but if you aren't strong, you might just give up. For me, I don't know if I would be able to fit in that place. Maybe someday, I'd revamp my page there, too and perhaps be serious.
There's a lot of good there. Again, it's how you choose to see it. There's a dev lady I admire -- Adora Nwodo -- and she just announced her fifth book on there (in three years). That's really inspiring to me. People are mostly professional there, which I like to be in such environment sometimes.
Someday, maybe. Do you have an account, though?
Yes, I do have an account there. Someday when I have the time, I would dust the account off.
