Still Loving Linked In


To follow up on a previous post ---- Linked In is delivering!!!!
With very little effort -- the news of joining our event Linked In page has spread.
We have more than 500 new email contacts because of the Linked In page we created for our convention.
Little effort = great return!!! No complaints here.

I am getting more and more requests from colleagues to participate in Plaxo Pulse. How do you like it compared to LinkedIn? Tony

Tony -- I have to say that Plaxo has not been on my radar screen - at all---

Using Google - I did find this thread regardign the "pulse" feature that was added to Pulse --

"I was shocked to see that Plaxo has disregarded its own privacy statement with the launch of its new Pulse service. There is no way for users to opt-out of the Pulse service, so their web info is broadcast without their permission to everyone on their contact list.

Facebook tried this with News Feed and quickly realized how unpopular it was. I hope Plaxo will recognize their mistake as well. They might want to re-read their own privacy statement...

How is blasting my info to everyone under the sun "control" over my information?
