No. For the same reason I don't do FB: companies are way too fast and easy with information, and way too lax with security. Plus, I have my career, and will retire from it, and will never need to look for a job, which is the largest benefit of LinkedIn. So your next question is why do I use RP, then? Because the benefits (interaction with Brothers and Sisters) far outweigh the risk. Something I don't feel for FB or L'n.

I do not use linkedin twitter or fakebook. Just not something I am interested in doing. I keep in contact with people I want to remain in contact with using email, texts and phone calls.

Wasn't aware there was one. Truth is, while I do have a LinkedIn profile, I can't and don't do much with it. I'm not so well-versed in LinkedIn.

SGT Private RallyPoint Member, I am a member, but it's pretty lonely in that LinkedIn group. I post occasionally; however, no responses.

My RP is connected with Facebook, LinkedIn and g-mail. Being unemployed, i'm hoping to increase my chances of "being seen", before I become homeless again.

Personally, I haven't found LinkedIn groups to be that useful; OTOH, I have been contacted more than a few times via LinkedIn to do contract work with administering the Aurea (formerly Lyris) ListManager application. What, exactly, is the point of joining the RallyPoint LinkedIn group? Can't we get the the same, or better interaction with RallyPoint members right here on RallyPoint?
