Quick note regarding Step 4: the name of my primary group on Ning is My Linking Power Forum. It's located here: http://MyLinkingPowerForum.ning.com (Even I have trouble keeping My Virtual Power Forum, My Linking Power Forum, and My Linkedin Power Forum straight! :-) ) Now: What can we do for *YOU*, Barbara? :-) Keep STRONG! Vincent Wright Barbara,

I may have missed things that are there in your list but here's what I have used and I'd like to offer: * The new groups functionality. It makes the Group Directory on yahoo groups obsolete. You can search groups by keywords and they appear in the order of their size. You can search within a group and find members by keyword. * This came along with the new "send" functionality. You can send messages to people who are in the same group as you, and not necessarily connected with you. Not all members are open to receive messages this way but many are. Unlike inmails, "sends" are not limited and are free of charge. * The groups discussions. You can post any questions, messages or simply post your profile, you will get invited. * LinkedIn can be searched from Google (or other search engines), like this: -intitle:directory -intitle:answers site:linkedin.com Here are some concrete examples (used on Google+Broadlook Diver) http://thetalentbuzz.com/2008/08/i-disagree-with-donato-diorio And two pieces that have been on LI for a while: * Downloadable LinkedIn outlook bar. It lets you see profiles of people who email to you, to whom you have sent emails and who you save in your contact folder. Have an email address, find the profile. Very useful. * LinkedIn Answers. Do an interesting post, get noticed. Thanks, Irina Shamaeva, irina@braingainrecruiting.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/irinashamaeva Hi Barbara,
