Anyone out there on LinkedIn?
LinkedIn has become one of the more popular professional networking sites out there in recent years. It’s a great way for co-workers to stay connected with each other after they part ways and also a nice platform for marketing your resume to what could be your future co-workers.
In addition to that, there is a nice section on the site for groups where you can post questions and discussion topics. With that in mind I wanted to point out that on LinkedIn there are several KDE-related groups. In particular, I’d like to invite all of you who are on LinkedIn to join the “KDE User” LinkedIn group and participate in the discussions there.
So far there are over 500 members but despite this there is not a whole lot of active discussion. I’m not sure if everyone is shy or busy or what but generating some lively discussions about KDE in front of a large group of interested onlookers could only be a good thing for promoting KDE. LinkedIn seems to have a very strong presence in North America and also in the business community in general. So I’m also hopeful that this could be a good avenue for attracting a larger KDE community on this side of the pond as well as developing a stronger user base in the business sector. Then everyone’s desk at work might eventually be as awesome as mine

Nice desktop. I’m thinking of starting to run KDE on my desktop at work, if I can get away with it. I’m curious, what video card do you have and how are you achieve dual display, and any headaches?
@saem – Thanks…it’s hard to tell but those are 24 inch widescreens. Geek heaven ;-p And no, getting it to work was as simple as plugging in the monitors and turning the computer on. I don’t know the exact card I’m using offhand but it’s something Nvidia.
@slashdevdsp – Link doesn’t seem to load for me…
But if it’s KDE in the workplace I’m sure it’s it’s beautiful!
meh, I used the Paste plasmoid the first time, and it automatically loaded it up in imagebin.ca for some reason it was down for a while, any way its back up http://imagebin.ca/popup/AoW47kI.html
