I had an exchange with a colleague the other day which made it clear to me that even if I’m not using various social media, specifically LinkedIn, other people most definitely are. Said colleague had checked out my profile, which I haven’t touched in about five years. He was still impressed enough to ask me to do a spot of work with him, which is nice. But I realised I could have advertised my wares much better.
And there’s also a professional organisation I ought to have joined long ago which checks people’s LinkedIn profiles to assess whether to admit them or not. It was time to conform and do the thing. Updated profile is here.
