My link to Jeff's post was more about the use of social communications, and less about his opinions on LinkedIn. You will find that I am a LI member with many connections and recommendations, and I have had mostly positive experiences. I do think however, that the type of communications Jeff discussed in his post - Twitter, Facebook status and so forth are a bit different than what LinkedIn does. Facebook, LI, Twitter are all tools I use - but I leverage them in very different ways. I don't really see it as an either/or proposition. Hi Mario,

I have in the past stumbled upon my peer David Berkowitz's recent question on LI, which I addressed promptly, and there are others I may've missed. The simple fact is not everyone is monitoring twitter 24/7 and if you're looking for specific skills you don't want to narrow down the chances of your finding the right person to a small network or to someone stumbling upon your tweet. Especially, in something as important as hiring, imo, quality beats timeliness. Just my $0.02. If you've any questions on LinkedIn, feel free to reach out to me at msundar@linkedin.com. Hi Chris,
