    The Power of LinkedIN



    Afternoon All - Just thought I would post a discussion and find out how many engineers or professional within the Refrigeration world use LinkldIN.

    I have found it a very useful tool when discussing trends in the market, news in the market and info on jobs out there.

    I myself run a group and am a member of several groups that boost over 5000 members each?

    What other social forms of media do engineers use?

    Let me know your thoughts.

    E-Mail Wise: Linkedlin generates far too much garbage. Been a member for 2-plus years and had to put the junk mail block on them.

    Lot of spam from linkedin, handy for contacting people.

    What groups do you run?

    Morning All,

    I confess to not being a tech eng as all of you guys are however I have never snooped or stalked to get new clients.

    I do that from my office desk on the blower.

    I was just curious to find out what other social networks engineers used.

    I find also that LinkedIn has to much spam which is why I apply group settings to one weekly update.

    If I have upset anyone with my post then off with my head....

    RE, Hvactalk, Facebook, Youtube.

    With my dyslexia i always read LinkedIn as Link Edin which sounds odd so never really looked past the name...
