Who uses LinkedIn?
I have always thought that LinkedIn is the more serious Facebook. The very business oriented type of social platform where you can share without the kittens.
I visit a few times a week and this morning is occurs to me the poor choice so many people make with their profile picture display. Unless they seriously don't care, why use a profile pic that conveys unprofessional or outright idiocy? Some don't know any better? ![]()

Was wondering too about it a while back.
I guess you are right, most don't know any better. But the attention whores that constantly post selfies on fb probably find it hard to stay professional on Linkedin . I see more and more political posts and the answer if you are a genius type posts that do not belong on this network nowadays |

I used LinkedIn and a lot of business for my non-adult company is generated by referrals and word of mouth contacts on the platform.

used to use it 3-4 years ago for a year or so.. For me it was not worth it. If people really need you, they will find you ;)
For adult i prefer xbiz anyway. Mike

It hit a big boom 3-4 years ago, everyone was pushing it. They somehow messed that up because people aren't focusing on it any more. Seems like FB is stronger again. LinkedIn mostly spam now.

I use it several time daily, and it generates a fair amount of leads to my company (nonadult)

If you use it in the right way, you can generate a great amount.

Can't say I agree. LinkedIn still seems very busy to me.

My question was who is using it, and your thoughts on how people use (what I perceive as) unprofessional profile images.

The lowest denominator of e-whoring, they are traying to attract connections like that.... they try to apply the same techniques to drive sales from the adult world into a B2B environment, laughable to say the least.

I believe you are right, and that many do that. On the other hand, I think some people just don't know how to properly conduct themselves in a professional manner.

I use it. I try not to bother people on it. It's only if it's totally impossible to find them anywhere else.

Linkedin is cool for non-adult business, especially if you like to do espionage on your competitor's contacts. If you do adult only it is not worth.
