I am an active Linkedin user and firmly believe that "there is something in everybody to add value to the society and make this world a better place to live."With this believe I want to add you in my professional network so that we can be of a mutual help to each other. I am sure you will be benefited after adding me in your network.
The Marketing Headhunter says: "A 1st degree LinkedIn connection asked me to forward an InMail from a competing recruiter to one of the best online retailing executives in my LinkedIn network. I refused."

And, once starved for intellectual stimulation, she is now refreshed by her regular contact with stimulating people.
How does Ms Fitton use Twitter? She posts links to her blog postings and multi-media experiments on Seesmic, Qik, Utterz, YouTube, Blip.tv, TwitterGram and Flickr. These are all used to "send out little snippets" of her life. Some are business-related; most are personal. (When her car was robbed, Laura complained to the Twitosphere and was love bombed with support).
She does believe, however, that Twitter should be used for business. "You miss out massively," she says, "when you dismiss this stuff as new-fangled and faddish.... Find the people in your organization who are drawn to it, and give them a little space and encouragement to discover and play."
Laura believes that Twitter can be "a great vehicle for a brand extension if you are willing to produce feeds of cool, useful things." She also believes that Twitter should be a mainstay of internal communication in every department.
She believes that Twitter won't encourage the wasting of company time. It will merely take up some of the time that is already being wasted.
She does admit that it takes a while to connect with a critical mass of brilliant people but after that the "ROI can be extraordinary."
Laura's prediction: Within 4 years social networking will be as pervasive as email. Her management advice: "Hire smart people, give them conditions to succeed, and get out of their way."

Soon, Facebook will allow you to send highly targeted recruiting ads to its members.
Facebook will not replace job boards. Job boards will pay the pay per click fees to lure people from Facebook into their databases where employers can see them. This is cheaper than having each employer do so herself.
Twitter is like chatting with someone at the next desk or your pal on the phone. That's the primary function it fills.

Do I hate Twitter? Kind of. My account lay dormant for a year. Then all of a sudden people started linking to me. I thought, "Wow, I must have been wrong; something is going on here." No, it wasn't.
I read an interesting article by Jerry O and a few by Dan Schwabel because they link to their blogs. And I found out that BL Offman has planters wart and now I know every day when Michael Specht is going to bed. But, nothing else was quite as exciting and I started to think that I'd had enough and then, today, the comic opera started.
Family dinner. My husband feeds the kids while a NYT photographer takes a photo of me for an article about my blog posts about our divorce.New York Times front-page article: I look fat in the photo. No wait, it's worse. I look structurally ugly. Crap.
Stressed. But I want to look fun, laid back and breezy. So I take orders for lunch. Then go to the wrong place. And come back with nothing.
Panic at my divorce lawyer's office. He says not to worry, he represents top entrepreneurs. I ask him to set me up with one on a blind date.
Buying NoDoze at Walgreens; I don't want to interrupt work later to get coffee. Good time manager, yes? But I feel like a drug addict.
Prayer of the novice twitterer: Please god, let this not suck.
Don't worry, it doesn't. (But everything else does).
Andy Baron of Rocketboom has about 1400 followers on Twitter. He is not going to use his personal account any more so he is auctioning it off on ebay.
