Social networking sites – what works for you?

We asked, here’s what you told us –

• LinkedIn is my preferred professional networking site, followed by xing.com and then by Twitter and Plaxo. Facebook is only used for private networking to stay in touch with family and friends. Oliver Schmid
• I don’t like Twitter at all! LinkedIn works for me – just have to sift through the spam which can be frustrating and time consuming. Laura Beken
• I use Facebook, Linkedin, Plaxo and Twitter. I use ping.fm to post to all of them at the same time. I find Linkedin and Twitter very useful for biz and Facebook so far has been a great social network for me. Diane Helbig
• Obviously, I use LinkedIn given we’re all here and I think it works well for business and I’m starting to use Facebook for business too as there’s often related groups that I can contact regarding campaigns we’re working on.
  The last show I produced for SmallBusinessAdvice.tv just before Christmas was on this exact topic – have a look at http://www.smallbusinessadvice.tv/chat/using_social_networking_for_small_businesses

  Be good to get your comments on the show too – Russell Goldsmith
