At least once each week for about a month, I have received Linkedin notifications suggesting that I connect with David Wyatt, a specification writer who also happens to work at my firm. We have remarkably similar work histories and connections, so it surprises me that we have not crossed paths yet. I am so grateful that we have amenities like Linkedin to help us expand our professional networks.

That's a good one. At least we can be confident their algorithms can accurately identify like-minded people for us.

Who says you can't be in two places at once when you're not anywhere at all? Apologies to Firesign Theater.

Why don't you try to link up with him so you can reject yourself?

David, Do you have a split personality? If so, which David is posting to this thread?

Any way to make sure your account hasn't been hacked or a duplicate account set up? Happens all the time with Facebook.

At least once a week I wonder why I subscribe to Linkedin, for me its been a waste of $$$ for leads or information. Sure I have over 500 "followers", most leaching for leads, for a while Linkedin tried to pressure me into posting my pic, they don't seem to understand I don't want my pic on the internet. Still they try everytime I sign on.

David, I wonder if Colin has kept track of the stupidest threads on this forum, this thread must be in the top ten. Along with the Artificial Ignorance one, it must be a slow week? Sorry, I am cranky today.

You are correct, Jerome. It is stupid. And ignorant. Hence the thread title. Everybody back to work!
