      I keep mine pretty up-to-date, although I was just thinking yesterday I need to update it now that I've moved back to NY...

      Keeping your location up to date on there is probably important. I just updated mine to Spain, let's see if it cuts down on the crap coming through.

        No I don't and that's something I should correct.

          I try to keep up with it. Though I am in a very different position than say SAM. I want people to associate me with NTG/GroveSocial. My Name is my brand and NTG/GroveSocial are VERY VERY much a part of that full branding.

                  @scottalanmiller I can see why you typically leave off your current employer. Perhaps that is a good general practice, but those who are in sales, or working with other partners this is not wise. I think it's imperative to keep it up to date so your customers know where you're presently working, and who you are & have worked with. This is true for myself. I've seem to get more pokes on Linked In every few weeks as a result. Typically it's a company that want to try to sell me their service, or get me to sell their service, which I don't mind provided their not aggressive. Also, because of my updates, I've been able to also mass a strong rolodex of IT/Business professionals.

                      Nope. I just get spam on their anyway. I always leave the current position off for privacy reasons. Don't want some stalker or someone trying to contact us to get me fired or something.

                        The spam volume is insane.

                          LinkedIn has been very good for me. I have found it a good use of time.
