Linked in is a bunch of edited by ddp. Who in the edited by ddp would use it on purpose? They are just as edited by ddp lame as FaceBook, the king of edited by ddp, which I guess would make Google the queen of edited by ddp, and of course leaving Apple devices machinations of edited by ddp, and finally, edited by ddp windows 8. I can't think of anything else to rant about at the moment so the end.

I totally agree with this person. I'm a network engineer and have vetted LinkedIn extensively.

It's a lousy service that has brutal amounts of spammers.

This service benefits ONE (1) F'ING TYPE OF PERSON/PROFESSION ONLY.............RECRUITERS!!

They build and build and build (hoard in many cases) a shitstorm of prospective employees so that they can quickly place into a position they are looking to fill.

I don't care how many "classes" on "how to effectively use LinkedIn for jobseekers" are offered because those don't do anything other than pad the little black books of recruiters.

I pulled my account after never benefiting in any way and having numerous recruiters call or email just to say "I just was following up to add you to my LinkedIn list"


F LinkedIn (only for recruiters)

F Twitter (only for celebs to give up-to-date details of
what they're doing and where they're going)

F Facebook (an incoherent site that never "flows", constantly
changes for the worse and jeopardizes everyone's
security and identity regularly only to give peeps
the ability to say when they're hittin' up the
toilet, what they just found on the ground and other
lame information that no one really cares about
except FB addicts which are loser themselves.)
