My linked-in is 10 years out of date, and I agree that killing it off is mighty attractive.
Does anybody here have any experience searching for jobs without a linked-in? I'd be curious to know how much an effect that would have on future job searches.

- marssaxman 2y agoI deleted my account fifteen or so years back, and it's worked out fine. I talk with friends to see if they've heard about anything interesting, and I look around for companies working on whatever it is I think I might like to do next, then try to get in touch. It's never taken more than a couple of months to find something.
