Are people still using Linkedin? Most people on LinkedIn are either 40 year old executives or recruiters with 3,000 random connections.

Wow, I wish I saw this post earlier :)Yup, we are trying to find the best apps to default on. Go an make some for your site :<a class="user" href="http://developer.yahoo.com/searchmonkey/">http://developer.yahoo.com/searchmonkey/</a>and make sure you are the registered owner of the site<a class="user" href="https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/">https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/</a>and then we'll see how well users like them.Also, you can always contact me through the mailing list on the developer tool.Hope you all enjoy monkeying around Paul Tarjan(|): Chief Technical Monkey :(|)

You are too kind :) Although I'm a little worried that I'm "actually a pretty smart guy" compared to your in-memory model. I don't know what that says for other techies that come and give you talks :PHope all is well. Paul Tarjan(|): Chief Technical Monkey :(|)

Please do this for Pownce. You don't have to be the site owner. Show us the power of what it can do, and then lets talk.<a class="user" href="http://developer.search.yahoo.com">http://developer.search.yahoo.com</a>
