    Why? LinkedIn is dead. LinkedIn is like airport lounge for old people. With an IPO, I think it is going to hurt the outlook on the web industry.

    LinkedIn has a very solid concept, but it can learn a thing or two about interface design from Facebook. It didn't seem at all intuitive the first few days I used it.

    While my start-up (ClutterMe.com) isn't necessarily a direct competitor to LinkedIn, this is still very interesting news. Feels like a social-network bubble coming up... but there still seems to be a lot of room for growth.

    It is not true that LINKEDin is The First socail media company to go public!

    XING has done it in December 2006!

    The other notable investors in LinkedIn include Peter Thiel who has also invested in Facebook. Looks like the LinkedIn IPO is going to be a home run for Peter. Sequoia has also invested in LinkedIn. Does anyone know if Sequoia had invested in facebook too?
