I've decided to start using Linkedin recently (I'd previously held off) and was just wondering how many contractors here have actually gotten gigs via this site?

I've been contacted lots of times, and have turned down a few gigs, I think its a good resource. However I don't think I could depend on it.
I guess it depends in which field you work. I do storage/backup/Project Management design and support.SA says;
Well you looked so stylish I thought you batted for the other camp - thats like the ultimate compliment!
I couldn't imagine you ever having a hair out of place!
