Mission Possible #7, Social Networking #2: LinkedIn

Posted by: rrodrigo

Are you Linked In?

Your Mission, should you chose to accept it, is to make professional connections!

LinkedIn is Facebook ’s more “professional” cousin. The purpose of LinkedIn is to make professional connections, as opposed to the more “personal” connections in Facebook. (I don’t know about you, but Facebook is very “professional” for me as well.) One of the professional activities you can engage in with LinkedIn is to “Recommend” someone.

Like the Facebook mission, your mission is to be professionally social:

  • Join LinkedIn
  • Make friends with soem folks at your school or in the district (those of us writing the Mission Possible posts all have LinkedIn accounts: Alisa Cooper, Devon Adams, Biray Alsac, Lisa Young, and yours truly Shelley Rodrigo);
    • Write a recommendation for your friend;
  • Join the Maricopa Tech LinkedIn Group ;
    • Participate in the discussion about “What technology do you want to “play” with this upcoming summer?” and
    • Submit a link under the “news” tab.

So go to LinkedIn.com, start an account, and be social!

This message will not self destruct, instead it will linger forever as a ghost on the web.
