It was awesome to see LinkedIn finally launch its own version of Q&A today - a new tab hopefully will get it some good promotion and more importantly generate more usage and page views.

I strongly believe in living life being interested rather than interesting, surrounding myself with trusted long term mentors, and so it was one of my big internal requests internally while I was there. Kudos to Mike Lin for getting a neat UI on it!

It is certainly not going to be easy with Amazon.com launching its own version (Askville) last month - The San Jose Mercury announced it today. Furthermore, Mashable has a good analysis on the QnA market here with Yahoo clearly dominating though IF there is real trust and respect within your connections, this can be more credible and valuable to its users. The irony at the same time though is that all business folks are always very busy.

Thoughts?

So what was my time at LinkedIn be worth soon? :)
