I seem to have an innate distrust of places like this. I can't shake the feeling that my being there will be of more help to "them" than to me. I feel like I'm being sold to, and being sold.
Perhaps if my career were different so would my feeling on this sort of stuff. I'm neither a mover nor a shaker, and business-wise I am only of limited utility to know. Nor am I in a position to use other people to further my own business; networking doesn't help me all that much. When I'm looking for employment it's a little different, but still...
Perhaps what you're seeing is part of my gnawing dislike of business networking sites - I never bothered to stop and think about it.
