what are you hoping to see happen there regarding AP?
Like I said, I avoided it. I avoided all the "social" networking
sites. Who needs to waste more time?
I am also looking at to see if has any "value" as a model or tool for
an advanced membership app on something I'm working on.
So far, in the two weeks I've tinkered around, read a book at Borders
on it's value, I've tracked down a few ex bosses, friends and others
I've worked with along the way.
On the AP side, I'm curious to see If people would join, who they are
in their field. It may be a way for some LOCAL expertise to be called
upon either in a job opening or other services - like your mentoring
or tutoring. To me, it all depends on how well YOUR network is linked
or if there is a group relative to your area of expertise or of there
is a local group, such as "Asbury Park". Look at it as online Chamber
of Commerce (which there is for Asbury Park, with 3 members, and no
response from a request to join...) So the group has to managed as
well.
Look at groups that are managed well - they hae discussions and other
postings. So I joined real estate related, MU ALumni etc. Again, one
big experiement. My kids don't get it "so..."
Another exmaple, there can be more then one manger for a group - you
can be the manager for the "asbury park" group - pst those great
links and more.
