    Let's say you are building networking for professionals like LinkedIn or Xing is. What do you think it would be all reasons why somebody would join into that networking. Why would people (specially employess) join into LinkedIn or Xing.

    Please tell me any uncommon reason you think about it, more different answers better it will be. Some examples: to get a new job, to find new business deal for company where you work. Any other?

    Tnx!

    Here's one: To build a reputable professional online profile. Someone Google's your name and hopefully your LinkedIn profile appears first.

    One of my close friends got a Job Offer from a company in California paying serious money ($150k) last week through linkedin. I'm pretty sure he's going to accept it too.

    Definitely worth being on there & building up your network :)
