What drives me crazy about LinkedIn is that Google isn't going after it with Google+. If Google had a "Resume upload" feature, it would slaughter LinkedIn, by allowing various circles of interest, friends, etc to cohabitate with the work stuff. You don't have to worry about sharing with your boss....

I like the technologists at LinkedIn, but I fucking hate the product. It's bullshit. The "Communities" are nothing but recruiter spam, I have people who have never worked with me in particular fields voting me up in these areas (if you have never worked with me on a project involving web dev, why would you upvote me for that skill)....

LinkedIn never rethought the resume. They just took it and put it online with Facebook clone features.



Umm... LinkedIn is older than Facebook. They didn't just 'put it online with Facebook clone features', there wasn't a facebook to clone...
