uk-netmarketing Archive (2011-2015)

Joining this discussion a little late - but LI has been known to change the rules without notice to the annoyance of Group founders. I know one who was trying to mobilise all the founders of big groups to pressure them to change back to the old way but without success it seems.

Subject: Re: [uk-netmarketing] What do we think of Linkedin groups? Should UKNM move?


Just my 2 pennies... I wouldn't move it...

I find UKNM a really useful resource, with the contributors often having well thought and valuable opinions and advice on topics.

LinkedIn has become hugely over subscribed, and the two groups I try to moderate with 1,500 or so members each are becoming a target for link droppers and not people with quality content or opinion. Something that is very well managed here (virtual pat on the back!) 

Also a reply on email list during your work day might be more acceptable than clicking around on LinkedIn - often seen as behaviour of a job seeker ;) 

Keep up the good work...
