Professional Communities – LinkedIn and Twitter

Editor’s Note: my controversial compassionate conservative of a co-editor, Kurt Heinrich, is not sold on opening a LinkedIn account to manage his professional connections, nor is he eager to use Twitter to build a professionally-minded “micro-brand” (©Copyright John Horn 2009) that will help promote, among other things, this blog. The following 300 words showcase my modest proposal for Kurt, and the rest of you, to embrace these mediums to raise your professional profile as well as grow your network of contacts. Enjoy!
