I'd argue that at this point we aren't LinkedIn's users anymore. Recruiters and HR are their users. We are just the data set.

- vdaniuk 12y agoWhile we are able to act on our free(arguably) will in the confinement of the linkedin walled garden, we are still users. Used and abused(heh) users, but nevertheless. I wonder who will be the linkedin killer. I certainly would like to see a decentralized network of websites with each project maximizing value for its customer segment, freeing that audience from linkedin choke. There is so much innovation lying dormant in the professional graphs, I can't believe we are stuck in this incredibly inefficient local optima.
