LinkedIn is a powerful tool, but that’s it. It’s just a tool, meaning that you get out of it what you put into it.? With so many interested in learning to use available tools, such as LinkedIn, most effectively to manage their careers, this got me to thinking…how could we reach more people to share this information?

With all of these cool online tools, it is time we think about our friends first, ourselves second, lest we find ourselves with fewer friends caring what we have to say. I am absolutely no blaming the tools. Like all tools, as long as people use them wisely and with others in mind, it can be a useful party of the online ecosystem.

If you have a blog, here’s your chance to share a bit about it with an audience who may not know about it yet: What is the URL? What do you think a blog is or should be? What is the primary topic? What do you hope to acheive through your blog? If you don’t have a blog, is starting one something you’ve considered?

They hear about tools, put forth a miserable effort, and are either too busy or just lazy. As mentioned, I reserve the right to edit your name and URL when that happens. It actually encourages people to use the third party tools rather than the twitter.com web interface in my opinion. I’m glad you like my blog policy!
