Like MySpace and Friendster and Facebook and Orkut and who knows what else, LinkedIn is another social networking site.  This one appears to be more focussed on jobs and career-type networking than the more informal, non-profesional networking that the other sites do. 

It's got lots of great features but unfortunately, it's not great (or I'm not great) at finding people you know if you didn't work together or go to school at exactly the same time.  So if anybody out there, is a member of LinkedIn, can you find me and add me to your contact list?  Or why not set-up an account and start building your own network (at least until the next “social networking site of the day” comes along.)

On that cheery note, Five Reasons Why Social Networking Doesn't Work
