LinkedIn is the most utilitarian of the social networks because it’s purpose is to be so. However, LinkedIn has squandered some of its advantages if you ask me, believe it or not I find LinkedIn to be the most promotional of the social networks I frequent, and among the most curated. It still has great value, I’ve been able to lean on my shallow LI network for job opportunities and interviews, and it’s a great research tool when scoping out new careers. But I’ll never go on LI to “waste time”, all in all, maybe that’s the best part of it.
