Re: Linked In Endorsements

[chianime@xxxxxxxxx]

Yes. Skills have been around for a while and now your connections can  
endorse that, in their experience, you actually have those skills.

For the moment, if I'm on LI and have a few minutes I'll go through a few  
panels of endorsements (they pop up on the top of profile pages). I  
probably triggered an email to Rob and a few others on the list this  
morning as I did a few. I wasn't looking up list members; I was just  
reacting to the panel.

And as noted if you see the panel for endorsement you're only endorsing one  
skill at a time. I might endorse you for RPG but not for iSeries as that  
wasn't displayed. LI doesn't at the moment offer a drop-list of skills in  
the panel; instead you'd have to go to the person's profile to do multiple  
concurrent endorsements.
