[nycbug-talk] Social networking sites

[Josh McCormack]

I'd call sites like these (linkedin, ryze, ecademy, etc) business 
networking sites rather than social networking (friendster, etc).

I use LinkedIn quite a bit. It's allowed me to pitch some ideas to 
companies I had no contact with, and has helped me move along some 
business ideas I've had.
