How to use LinkedIn

http://www.globalchange.com Linkedin future of business online community or just a phase?
Linkedin is the business version of FaceBook or MySpace and had 11 million executives signed up by June 2007. But does this business inline community really work? Most Linkedin users have less than 50 contacts and don’t use it much. Recruitment, sales, marketing, promotion — all possible but what will be the dominant purpose of Linkedin? Most contacts I’ve had are people wanting introductions — to other people they don’t seem to be able to get to any other way. Comment by Dr Patrick Dixon, futurist, leading authority on global trends and conference speaker.

Shawn Robinson – 801 742-1105, http://shawnrobinson.info

This is in response to a question I received on another video that I did on using LinkedIn to attain a job.

Hi Shawn,
I have an opportunity to speak one-on-one for an hour with someone in a high position in a company within an industry that I’m passionate about but the purpose of the one-on-one is to interview him about his company for a project that I’m working on as part of my internship for another organization.

What are some possible ways that I can turn this into a networking opportunity for a job within his company as well? Do you have more tips on how to find jobs in the hidden job market?
