I was wondering if anyone actually uses LinkedIn? If so, how do you use it? I am having trouble finding the use for this tool. Has anyone ever made solid contacts or found work through this site?
I am a little confused on Twitter as well but there are plenty of threads on here about Twitter that I am going to read.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,

Sarah,
At the very basic level, LinkedIn is for networking. You can build a friend list of diverse resources. Down the road, let's say you need a realtor. You go to LinkedIn, look at your list and may be able to utilize that realtor in your friend list. Or someone you have linked with may need a VA in the future or know someone who does and will refer them to you since they are linked to you. It's a who ya know thing. Run with the other features from there.
