Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Is this breaking news, or "broken news?" In the book I recommended the $60/year upgrade for those who needed to upgrade... but apparently the offer is off the table.   I've found out from the MyLinkedInPowerForum group that the link doesn't work anymore.  Actually, I kind of noticed when I was ...
