Behold the new wonders of y favorite social networking site: www.linkedin.com.
The site has been through some changes and has now launched their new services on a brand new (and redesigned homepage) which imho looks quite appealing. New features would include:
Company News, (Better) Network Updates and the Opportunity to make “Modules”.
This, and the connection with the OpenSocial Members (Oracle / Salesforce and many more) provides a possible platform for all of us who wish to be connected, but just can’t agree on the right platform. OpenSocial is the Google Solution to this problem, providing the glue that makes it all happen. I hope this will be a success, and until then – see you on www.linkedin.com

In theory, the new frontpage / Network Updates is good.
However in my experience it is very often inaccurate, which demotes the trust of the rest of the page. And you really don’t want to do that on the very first page that people see.
