Considering all the apologies I get from people after linked in spams the everlasting crap out of me and mailing lists I'm on, I'm having a hard time believing that there isn't _something_ wrong going on there and that Linkedin doesn't know about it. I'm not a fan of social networks— but Likedin seems like an actually reasonable idea... However, I've never made an account there because before I ever got to it the floods of invites (many clearly not intended) provided ample evidence to me that this wasn't something that I wanted anything to do with.
