Obviously this is supposed to be negative, but it contains one very positive thing about LinkedIn:
> I will give them full credit for making it much easier than say Facebook to delete my account.
If it's true, then this is important, the kind of thing that LinkedIn ought to be pointing out on their main page, IMHO.
- ricardobeat 15y agoIs it that important from a marketing pov? "Come to my restaurant, you can leave anytime". You can tell from Facebook's existence that people don't care that much about privacy.

- ggchappell 15y agoEvery restaurant allows people to leave. Pointing this out does not make any particular restaurant stand out. But it does make websites stand out. Also, we're not talking about privacy here. The question is whether signing up for an account is a lifetime commitment. A FB account essentially is a lifetime commitment; I think it would be good if people understood that. Apparently, a LinkedIn account isn't. That's certainly a plus in my book.
- ricardobeat 15y agoIs it? Try http://facebook.com/help/delete_account http://facebook.com/help/delete_account (after deactivating). You're only worried about the depth of commitment because your data is there, i.e., privacy.
