"LinkedIn"
 
            LinkedIn is a professional network for businesses. LinkedIn was created by Reid Hoffman in 2002. LinkedIn is a worldwide network. Sixty-five percent of LinkedIn members are located outside of the United States. There are 30 million students and recent college graduates. There are positives and negatives of LinkedIn for businesses, social, entertainment, news, and recreational.
            The positives for businesses is that there businesses can get younger people to keep the business going. Also the younger the business get the longer they will be around if they picked the right people. Socially this is very good for college kids and recently graduated colleges kids because it is very to get a job once you leave college. Entertainment people can click on other businesses and check them out. For news it’s good to see if the businesses’ still there or not. Recreational purpose is good so, people can get a job faster.
            The negatives for businesses are that businesses never know what type of person they will get. Socially it can have some negatives like if your business is small people won’t look at it, or if the business is in a bad spot. Entertainment could be negative people use it too much for entertainment and not for work. Recreational people can still get rejected for a job.
            LinkedIn has some positives and negatives. For businesses it is hit or miss with the people you might get, but they could get a very good worker or an awful worker. This website makes tons of money since there is over 30 million students on this website.
