Taking audience questions
9:38

9:39
Answer: We make money on 1) Advertising, 2) Classifieds, 3) Subscription/Premium products and 4) Enterprise class products sold directly into large organizations
9:40
Question: Does LinkedIn have plans to make a way to visualize connections between people, businesses, etc?
9:41
Answer: Platform will help with this. Currently we also provide a way to see this within a company, including most pageviews for profile, etc.
9:42
Question: What is the spread geographically across the world? Top three countries?
9:43
Answer: Half members are from US. Very successful in countries like the UK, India, Netherlands and other places in Europe. It’s a moving target and Adam is not entirely clear - not wearing his PR hat.
9:43
Question: LinkedIn apps for the iPhone 3G?
9:44
Answer: LinkedIn has a iphone web app that they’ve been impressed with. Whether therre will be a July 7th app launch, LinkedIn is a fan and will pursue aggressivley - but this is not an announcement. Just a hint

        Twitter Pitch!

        <p>Twitter pitching is a form of pitch that requires succint "what does this mean for me" kind of pitching. It is the ultimate efficiency of words. You have 140 characters or less to tell me why your pitch matters to me or my readers. Please include a means of contacting you. This is included in your 140 characters. If you send successive pitches, you will likely be ignored, unless it's obvious that the first pitch was a case of "accidental send", etc.</p> <p>This form of pitching does not mean I'm being a diva. It means that my time is valuable, and you want a piece of it. It's good practice for you, and delivers your pitch in a format I want. Win-win.</p>
