What will be the successor of the current user (professional) profile in online networks?
This question has been asked in LinkedIn Q&A forum Ronald Wopereis.
Ronald Wopereis asks: "Currently every major online social and/or business network has this concept called "user profile". The information inside such profile would hardly be considered factual by any news reporter or judge. Clearly, our presentation of ourselves is biased, aimed at offering a certain kind of contact while at the same time making sure that our shadow elements are left out as "not really relevant at this stage of relationship building".
In my theory of attention, and following Spinoza's comments 300 years ago that mind and body are two perspectives on one and the same area, i see a future where software usage is what builds a user profile."
My answer is: I guess LinkedIn is pioneering the "successor of (professional) user profile" with 3 specific features:
In addition to what's on LinkedIn, as Ronald wrote it, every name can be "googled". That's why in addition to Linkedin Q&A, it's a good practice to participate to forums and publish some papers.

My answer is: I guess LinkedIn is pioneering the "successor of (professional) user profile" with 3 specific features:
- who you know - your network
- recommendations from current and past colleagues
- LinkedIn Q&A feature where you can advertize your skills by asking and answering question. from what I understand this is what you call "software usage".
In addition to what's on LinkedIn, as Ronald wrote it, every name can be "googled". That's why in addition to Linkedin Q&A, it's a good practice to participate to forums and publish some papers.
