I did not write that spoof, by the way, and I don't know who did.

This one is not fake, IMHO. I, too, created a LinkedIn profile and then have no idea what to do with it.


University of Phoenix researchers closing in on elusive LinkedIn purpose

Despite millions of users and a $9 billion initial public offering, nobody knows what the popular social network LinkedIn actually does. But now University of Phoenix researchers say they are closer than ever to identifying the mysterious website’s elusive purpose.

“We know it has something to do with business, and probably careers in business,” said Richard Weiner, lead researcher on the project. Our initial investigations indicate it’s highly appealing to douchebags, which is why it caught our attention, but it’s also getting a lot of attention in the non-douchebag community.”

According to Weiner, Most people sign up for the service, create an online resume, and then stare blankly at the screen, muttering, “Well, now the **** what?” They then switch over to Facebook and forget about LinkedIn until annoying emails start rolling in. “We’re optimistic LinkedIn can help our students and alumni here at University of Phoenix land jobs,” said Weiner. “Lord knows, they’ll need it.”
