I've been using LinkedIn for a while, indeed it is great. I typically describe it to people who don't know it as a "business-oriented friendster".I'm not sure if the "groups" feature is also available to "free" users?

someone needs to be delegated as the group manager/moderator.

 



This would be perfect.

 

Linked In is great, but you really only link to people you have
a personal or profesional relationship with. Setting up two groups is a great
idea.

The Ajaxian plan seems to have been modeled off the MySpace "friends" model,
where with LinkedIn and other professional networks you /don't/ want to link
with people you don't know pretty well.  Whoever created it didn't think it
through.

You already asked this and already received responses, and the feeling was
that a LinkedIn group or two might be a good idea.

I wanted to oversimplfy it...
 
This is a mailing list for the Zend Framework and 
not for job hiring, nor for making new contract or networking.
Anyone who is in need of that or wants this can 
google for it... 
 
When his company is in need for PHP'lers they 
should announce in the right channel or page but not in this mailing 
list.
That's what I meant.
 
Btw: I'm member of openBC since several years... I 
know what I speak when I talk about networking.

  Linked-in can be a useful non-email way to social 
  network and keep up with what people are doing. When its working, it can be an 
  excellent way to make new contacts. [I know I've personally landed several 
  contracts that I would not have without linked-in]
