Understanding How to Use LinkedIn for Social Networking

If you know the "tricks," you can use the LinkedIn Social Network to connect to your contacts and exchange knowledge, ideas, and opportunities with a broader network. Among the things you will learn is how to send a message to your connections, in mail if you are not connected, add a user to your network, write a recommendation for your connection, request a recommendation from your connections, have a common connection introduce you, post questions, apply for jobs, download vcards, join groups, post events, integrate Twitter and use various applications. NOTE: To participate fully in this class you must have a WIFI ready computer and an Active LinkedIn username and password. See Video of Social Media/Internet Classes with Mickey Bryant.
