It’s the love and hate relationship of social media. There are cons, but as Tammy points out, if they are in your network than they are open for connections. However, it would be different if I were to look up a competitor and search their clients. That could be a very real concern.

I also feel it is time for LinkedIn to increase the (in)famous 500+ Connections label to say 1000+ Connections.

LinkedIn has recently fixed a couple things that really bugged me (their search for names function was very lame for some time).

So, far, I’ve had one lead come in through LI – certainly not a trend for me, but it was an excellent gig that spanned 18 months. The client found me through a mutual connection.

So, then I’m changing my request: I’d like the blog to be more prominent (at this point, Company news is in the lower right-hand corner) *and* I’d (still) like to have the ability to have our twitter feed on the company profile :) .

I’m not talking connections, I’m wondering if anyone has ever gotten a client or a job through LinkedIn?
