Interesting survey results. What is particularly interesting is the fact that only 1 in 8 find LinkedIn valuable, although it positions itself as a business focused social network.
I have been saying for some time that its appeal is greatest to those looking for jobs but that it doesn't help you find other trusted businesses to work with, as a business focused site should. As such sites emerge, WeCanDo.BIZ being one of them, I wonder how much more valuable they'll be seen than LinkedIn? As useful as Google's search is not too lofty an ambition in my opinion.
