From the AlmostSavvy mailbag: Rod asks: “I’ve noticed that I’m able to see some people’s full LinkedIn profiles when clicking on their link, but when clicking on the link to my own profile, I see very little information. Do I need to have a paid membership to have everything visible&#. Excellent question, Rod! The good news is that this is easy to fix and it will cost you only a few minutes of your time (and that includes viewing the video below).

There was a little get-together for tech reporters at Facebook headquarters today. You may have heard about it. Whenever Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Facebook, summons an audience because he’s got something to announce about Facebook, life as we know it grinds to a halt. Or so it seems. Not only have I heard and seen a zillion blog posts and news reports about the latest Facebook changes in the hours following the press conference, many of the posts were even published during the press conference

Has it been a year already? It’s hard to believe that I’ll be heading to Paris in just a few days. I’m thrilled that I’ve once again been selected as an Official Blogger for LeWeb , Europe’s largest and most exciting tech event. It’s an honor to be included among such a diverse group of multinational bloggers. The event is a wonderful mix of tech presentations and discussions, start-ups, networking, socializing, learning and sharing.

In addition to all of the presentations and workshops, one of the many wonderful aspects of the recent LeWeb conference in Paris is the opportunity to connect with others who are working on innovative projects and developing new applications which make our lives easier or more productive. As I was listed as one of the LeWeb Official Bloggers , I received a few requests to meet from those interested in obtaining coverage for their product or for one of their clients.

Ugh. Is there anyone that likes dealing with the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles)? Seldom does a day go by that I don’t see a comment from a tortured soul waiting in a painfully long line at the DMV. Similar to that other beloved public agency, the IRS, the DMV has a reputation for confusing processes, no sense of customer service and an infrastructure stuck in the technological dark ages.

For any normal person, not connecting online for a short while doesn’t seem odd. In fact, it seems, well, normal. When I notice that someone hasn’t posted in a few days, I assume they are out and about living their lives. When a social media geek like me doesn’t post updates to Facebook or Twitter and too many days have passed since my last blog post, people begin to wonder if I’ve fallen off the face of the Earth.

With a two-day program filled with tech thought leaders and innovators , there was one subject which seemed to consistently rise about the rest and dominate so many of the conversations at LeWeb. What was it? Wikileaks. While I didn’t go into LeWeb expecting to hear so many opinions about Wikileaks – it’s mission, it’s founder, it’s future – it shouldn’t have been a surprise.

I’m torn at the moment. Ethically speaking, I made the right decision. Practically speaking, I’m disappointed. You may be aware that journalists and bloggers are sometimes offered free stuff in exchange for media coverage of some sort. This free stuff may come in the form of anything from products to services to tickets. In exchange, they are usually expected to provide advertising/promotion, reviews or direct sales pitches.
