  1. I'll be curious to know how business networkers feel about this. Social and Business 2.0? Let's make it happen :)

  2. Honestly- I am not very happy that LinkedIn, my favourite "classic" Business Network, is becoming "just another chaos 2.0". Knowing Linkedin for the years, I don't believe they are dynamic enough to follow and react daily to the changing world, so the Apps 2.0 can really break the feeling of a "stable/ classic business network".

    but it's their choice, LinkedIn isn't like spock, they don't ask for my advices :lol: If they asked- I'd advise to Linkedin the only one strategic thing: "stay Linkedin which is different". but they want "be like the others"... well we'll see
