More LinkedIn Fun

LinkedIn is making the most of its 100 million plus members.  I love the idea of the LinkedIn truck to promote the other services that LinkedIn provides beyond an "online resume".  The incorporation of Twitter to draw the truck to different neighborhoods is also a fun twist.

Reaching 100 Million

Next week we'll be discussing professional networks in class.  It turns out to be a pretty timely topic.  Recently, LinkedIn surpassed 100 million users.  While that number is small compared to other networks like Facebook and Twitter, the characteristics of LinkedIn members make it a rich marketing environment.

You know my love of numbers plus a visual and this piece from Mashable is no exception.  Take a minute to check out this infographic about who is using LinkedIn.

See you in class on Tuesday!
