I received this backchannel from someone. Not sure he wants me to say who, so I’ll leave it anon for now:

If you use it right, why would you need to cheat?
I received the same thing, but I mean cheating makes all the connections built up invalid.
Thats where LI is failing at the moment, still people see it as a novalty and not as a sales tool. That needs to change

I got LinkedIn “spam” (my term for it) just recently. Some guy with 7,000 connections who was connected through some of my connections (3rd degree through you actually and someone else). No idea who he was. Rejected it.
In the end, I don’t know taht such practices are without consequences. If someone really wants to make valid contact you and they ask one of those thousands of contacts you have what he or she knows about you and they say “who?” it’ll fly back and hit you in the face pretty quick, I think.

I should mention that I’m in no way endorsing this. It piqued my interest. I haven’t even read the full article yet. It seemed that it offered some value (to me), though, in that it showed a great process for getting your actual contacts into LinkedIn.
That’s why I’ve listed it here.

I totally agree, and you might think I am one of these people considering the size of my network, but I have validated every one of my connections and my endorsement can proves that.
It has become invaluable to me in my position as Account Manager for a BTL agency, and if they were (to ever) come out of beta, I’d be the first to pay, $100pcm at that. And thats because people like us add value. The other believe quantity is what matters in this space.
If your a salesman that quantity MIGHT be a good thing, but I am firm believer of Quality as opposed to quantity.
Beter shut before I start ranting, but I agree with Jeremy, it irritates the shit out of me. I mean its not fucking rocket science is it?
