I've gotten a lot of recruiters contacting me, and direct freelance request. People may find you randomly like that once you fill out your deets. I'd say it's worth it for networking purposes.

Funny. I've over the past few days received a few requests to be added. I wasn't a member, but I dove in and it seems to be good. Hopefully it'll help with the job hunt.

Met a guy last night (he's a programmer here in PT - but currently unemployed) who's working with another guy in California, that he met via linkedin. I asked him if it was safe, etc working for someone you never met and that can simply choose not to pay for for a gig. He replied that there's always that risk but he works in small projects (15hrs top), so even if he looses he doesn't looses much. I guess that in his present situation this makes sense. Fact is, he already got 2 pay-checks for 2 gigs.

I just posted about this today in the "Radostar" thread:
http://www.qbn.com/topics/587090…But, yeah, it's worth the effort, in my opinion.

i like both facebook and linkedin... but do more with facebook. although the professional got sidetracked by the personal stuff on there with old friends. its good to make a pro account and a personal.
- I keep personal on facebook, professional on linked in. And super tight privacy options on facebook so ONLY friends see thingsadev

I'm there. Haven't gotten any projects through the place yet, I wonder if it's b/c I haven't added my photo yet. Look me up, kids.
- I've got that "hire me" sort of face. Although some people think it says "kick me" :PScotch_Roman
- *kicks s_r, hires cat.
Dammit! Backwards.blaw
