LinkedIn or LockedIn?
I've noticed two main trends recently:
1) People are sending more LinkedIn eMails.
2) GTD (getting things done) become popular again.
I received so many LinkedIn updates in the last few weeks I decided to look into this trend. As it seems, my profile was not updated at all (nice feature they have there that shows you how much you are NOT up-to-date ), and my contacts list of very short. I decided to do something about it and started pinging my contacts. Very quickly my contact list grew by over 50% and I started to get endorsements from people I really missed...
Putting LinkedIn aside for a second, I noticed/discovered more and more Blogs and sites dealing with GTD.
The largest collections I saw was from lifehacker.com.
A person could spend so much time picking and trying tools, no work will get done ever.
Coming back to LinkedIn... It is addictive. I must stop before it is too late...
(I guess I should keep my focus on the professional work rather on my professional network, or not?!)
