    Latest LinkedIn WTF!

    This really is becoming LinkedBook isn't it

    I want my account deleted and all of my information removed, I want to invoke my right to be forgotten.

          I was asked to congratulate someone who was "celebrating 1 year at Looking for new opportunities".

            Indeed.

            I had a few 'happy birthday!' messages from random ex colleagues at the weekend.
            Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

                It gives you an excuse to say hello. Can't see anything wrong with that.
