I just don't think that I want my clients or employers in on what I am discussing with friends or family....it' just too personal. The only people that I have on facebook that I work with are people who are also considered close friends and I would socialize with outside of work...so they know more about me. Linked in is for professional connections and I don't have friends as connections there...unless they are in the same or similar field or are recruiters. If I want to know what you are doing in your business life...i go to linked in. I don't want to know about it on FB.
