This is the story about a professional networking site LinkedIn, which is not so popular in India as are other social network sites like the Orkut was a few years ago and now the facebook is. And this is the story of my boss, who has presence in LinkedIn and Facebook (Presence on Orkut has not yet been known) under some kind of cover or anonymity (I will ask him the reason someday and write about it).
So, as I said, my boss is using some kind of alias name on LinkedIn and suddenly yesterday (minus a day or two), he got linked up with some old room mate of his, who happens to be a hot shot prof at some American University and has got published enormous research papers and articles in the field of finance and economics. Now, boss has decided that he will do away with the alias name on the LinkedIn and appear in his true avatar there.
However, I had discovered him on LinkedIn much before (2-3 months), and also sent my request to get connected. However, it was not approved. Now, I guess is the right time to send the invitation again and hopefully this time it will get accepted. I have found out his presence on Facebook also, but never sent an invitation. So, I am sending connect request to him on both sites shortly.
