LinkedIn

Who it's for: The employed, the unemployed

What we like: How many times have you heard, "It's not what you know, it's who you know"? Well, thanks to LinkedIn, you can forget relying on awkward networking receptions and conferences to branch out in the professional world. Basically, you put your resume and aspirations online and connect with friends, coworkers, or anyone you want to meet professionally. What's especially great is you can see how you might relate to others through varying degrees of connections, as opposed to needing mutual friends to make an acquaintance. If you've had any trouble with your job recently, we suggest checking this site out and adding as many people as you can.
