I think that's his point. He's saying that LinkedIn has the opportunity to do lots of interesting things, and appears to be squandering it.
- gressquel 8y agoLinkedIn is excellent as it is; its a utility to keep your CV updated and connect with professionals. We don't want FB-like functionality here, thank god.
- darawk 8y agoTo be clear, I don't have an opinion on the issue myself. I was just trying to clarify the meaning of the grandparent comment.
- paulie_a 8y agoJust spam and advertisement. That is all LinkedIn has ever been. The contact aspect is shallow at best if you don't work in HR. It's a circle jerk.
- SmellyGeekBoy 8y agoExcellent if you like endless spam from clueless recruiters who think that Java == JavaScript...
- markovbot 8y agoLinkedIn is a massive pile of dark patterns and spam. What universe are you living in that that's "excellent" or even acceptable?
- geodel 8y agoWell, it is excellent platform for self-declared thought leaders offering groundbreaking insights about business/culture and innovation.
- markovbot 8y agoIt's a shit platform for that. Users who are attempting to read these "groundbreaking insights" are subjected to a deluge of tracking code and other malicious behavior. There are plenty of excellent platform for people to share ideas, LinkedIn is absolutely not one of them.
- ggregoire 8y agoLinkedIn is fine as it is. I found my last 3 jobs on it.
- Kiro 8y agoLinkedIn is perfect already.
