Often times a sequel will be better than the original, see Wraith of Khan, Empire Strikes Back, Godfather Part II, but I can not say that about this post. I was definitely more impressed with Ning than I was with Linkedin. It just seems like a glorified telephone directory.
Of course I have only had my account for a week, so my impressions are not fully formed. However, I did notice while making my connections, that many of my colleagues have tried Linkedin and then stopped using the site. Whether this is because of personal preferences or a failure on Linkedin's part remains to be seen.
For those of you who have been "linked" longer, what benefits have you seen from using the site?
Next week the 23 Things Kansas community tackles online meetings. Seeing as I earned my MLS through a mostly online program at Emporia State Univeristy, I think I have this one covered!
