[BBLISA] BBLISA LinkedIn group

[Tom Metro]

BBLISA now has a LinkedIn group. (If you're not familiar, LinkedIn is
a social networking site for professionals.)

Your direct LinkedIn network is supposed to consist of people that
you've worked with before and can vouch for. In contrast, user group
connections are like 2nd level contacts (people you know through other
people). So networking via a user group broadens your network without
violating that principle.

To join, go to:
http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/45411/0F3ACD5E5B0A

No one is pre-approved (which would have required uploading everyone's
email address to LinkedIn), so you'll be told you have to wait for the 
group manager to approve your request. You don't have to do anything 
further - your request will be approved within a few days.
