Hi outrun, thanks for your reply.I used LinkedIn before, however, I think facebook is far better than that since you can update your recently activity with your friends among other things. That will build a trust among friends over time...That's why some folks jumped from LinkedIn to facebook because facebook has a brighter future...

There do have a few from various companies. I am not sure if that comes from here.That's a good field, since eveyone is relatively more true there, it is hard for guys to throw meaningless sentence there...

LinkedIn is mostly professional networking site, it generates very little or no spam.

Facebook has more than millions of professional right now. I am not ad for facebook and I have no connection with both facebook and linkedin. I am just a user, however, from a user's point, I would more trust the connect built from facebook instead of linkedin because you can see the person more by facebook... I tried both and I really believe that facebook is a good thing. I want to use that to get to know folks here...

That's just your own perception and that is wrong...That is actually a "trusted social network" style... Most of them are young folks(student and professional) though...
