I have added people out of my network to join my network.  I selected the
"Friend" option and provided details to make sure they knew who I was.  I
have probably done this for around 10 people this week since going solo on
the job front.  Have had no issues whatsoever and I am using the free
LinkedIn account.

Hope this helps you.

Subject: OT: Did LinkedIn change?

 

Hey Folks,

 

It's been a while since I was on LinkedIn.  Yesterday I was looking for a
past colleague, found him, but could not send him an invite as this person
was "out of network".  I was able to join another past colleague since we
had someone in common as part of our network.

 

I was able to send the past colleague a message, if I signed-up for at
$24/month "upgrade".   Since I don't use LinkedIn except for occasional
professional contacts, it's hardly worth it.

 

I thought when I first signed up with LinkedIn I could invite anyone to be
part of my network.  Maybe I'm wrong and missing something.  But since I
can't just invite anyone, anymore, like Face Book, why bother?  Maybe $24 a
year, but a month?  

 

If I'm mistaken please show me the light...

 

Tom
