LinkedIn public profile

The LinkedIn professional networking site now allows you to make your profile public and even personalize the URL for your profile. Mine is at http://www.linkedin.com/in/jackkrupansky.

My own LinkedIn network is still fairly small at 91 connections, but I do get a slow trickle of incoming acceptances of old invitations and an occasional new invitation.

I still have not gotten any great business value from LinkedIn, but it is a useful "rolodex" and makes it convenient to keep track of former associates. I occasionally get an email from LinkedIn highlighting job changes for people in my network.
