Who could miss all the news on LinkedIn recently? The LinkedIn IPO was hot, hot, hot and stories about social media companies in general are in the news every day. LinkedIn has more then 100 million users, with hundreds of new ones signing up each day. That’s a lot of clients and potential business hanging their hats in one place.
