Facebook vs. LinkedIn

It was a cozy domestic scene in the Harris household last night. Snuggled on the couch, dividing our attention between watching the episode of GLEE that we'd taped and typing away at the laptops on each of our laps. Very Norman Rockwell.

Blair mentioned a mutual friend of ours had updated his profile. "His background is really impressive," he said. 

"Let me look," I said. I logged into Facebook and pulled up the friend's profile. "Are you under Info? I don't see anything."

"I guess," said Blair. "It's right--oh geez. You're on Facebook. Woman, I'm on LinkedIn."

We decided that pretty much sums up the differences in our marriage and personalities - whether we go by default to Facebook versus LinkedIn. Revealing, no?

Cheers,

Dena

There's a potential study for ya... (I am personally such a "bad LinkedIn user" that I don't know if I've ever even posted a status there!) So I would have done the same thing.

what if you seldom go to either but manage all updates and reads via a 3rd party tool? Hootsuite - i'm just saying.
