Thanks for another great round up of links Brad. I needed that one on LinkedIn in particular

Thanks for the shout-out, Brad.
I’m also chuckling at your introduction to the “how long does it take” post with, “and answers with exceptional clarity.” Because my first thought is that the post says something like “22.5 minutes.”
Brad, great collection of links. Although, not on social media I would add your series on Selling to best of the web this week.
Joanna, Jennifer really does a nice job of explaining LinkedIn by telling a STORY … good technique, don’t you think? Deb, I think it takes me twice as long to write a post, so I’d better read Lorelle’s instructions again! Karen, Such an oversight on my part!
Hi Brad
I came across the Anita Campbell article too…very interesting. The free resources she offers at the end are valuable too.
Off to explore the other links now. Thanks!
Hey Brad,
Thanks a lot for the mention, glad to hear you found it useful and to your liking. Cheers!

Thanks for the link.
Thanks for doing some 4 star research for us!
Brad,
I really liked the article on LinkedIn – now I know what it is and that it’s not so important for me at the moment. Thank you very much for putting the list together!
