I was thinking today how neat Follow Fridays were on Twitter. If you don’t know, On Fridays random people will select from their followers and add the #FollowFriday hastag. In effect you are sending out to the twitter universe your list of people you feel are worthy to be followed.
The concept is great and I was wondering if that could also be done in LinkedIn.
Well it can. Here’s how:

Here’s my email that I sent out:
As you may know, Twitter has it’s FollowFriday in which you recommend quality people to follow.
What a wonderful idea I thought, so why not bring this concept to LinkedIn?
LinkedIn will allow me to send email to 50 of my contacts at a time.I have 5 people I think you should connect with if you haven’t already.
