It's a website where people, like myself, who have no particular interest in facebook, can connect with those in a similar profession. Given that headhunters and recruitment agencies pretty much exclusively network and advertise on LinkedIn I find it a necessity to maintain an online professional presence. Are there people on there that use it for less then professional purposes? Undoubtedly, but they are fairly easy to weed out. I have a large network where over 95% of people in it are directly related to my business, excluding a few old school and university friends. I find it invaluable, but like all these things it is what you make it. Regarding the other matter. I find myself somewhat at odds. His comments were crass, insensitive, sexist and completely at odds with the workplace in the 21st century, they shouldn't have been made and clearly a complete unreserved apology would have been the only correct response. Did he deserve to have the entire twittersphere unleashed upon him? I think not. What I did find telling though was her stating that she'd received numerous propositions through LinkedIn but only publicised this one when she saw how senior her propostioner was.
