Social Networking-why bother?

I just read a blog-(weblog) on how employers/companies view social networking...
They think it has value & can serve as a best practices discussion, professional development, even helping retention by the employees having a community of employees that share being in an industry/position/ job seeking tips-within their company or in general.

So, why not use LinkedIn or MySpace, Yahoogroups...to help your job search?  You tap into the Hidden Job Market & begin networking!  80% of jobs are found through networking!

I'm dabbling in LinkedIn-wanna network? :)

In Abundance!
