what's LinkedIn?

LinkedIn was created by Reid Hoffman and a group of his colleagues from Social net and Paypal in 2003. 
LinkedIn is a social media platform that allows people to network with professionals, to establish relationships that translate into job opportunities.
LinkedIn allows users to post their education, experience and skills to ensure that employers know enough about them to see if they are qualified for the job.

LinkedIn is primarily used by High school and college student in an effort to build their portfolio.
 this is done to connected students to employers before they graduate making it easier for them to find jobs.
with my LinkedIn I hope to share my content with employers so that they may give me feedback and tips on how I could produce better content.

Every aspect of his linkedin is detailed with information about his expertise ,which has allow him to connect with a multitude of news stations and has gotten him many job opportunities. the only negative to his profile  is that he didn't smile in his profile picture.
