In spite of much misgivings and in spite of still having no clear idea what really happened to the Linkedin relationship I *thought* I was working on, today, August 16, 2008, I opened another account on Linkedin.

Since my series of nano-posts on MyVirtualPowerForum.com were supposed to be *VERY* short, I'll keep this as Twitter-like as can be: I merely want the simplest possible professional relationship one can have with Linkedin. -

Thus, I intend to focus just on seeking and making professional introductions. In other words, using the Linkedin platform to help with my business, social, and career missions and with helping those who network with me to do the same. That's it. That's all. I know of no way to express it with any greater clarity of purpose than that. If you're ready for the future, so am . So, onward. Upward. Keep moving forward. And please try to keep getting STRONGER!

This is strange.... Vincent Wright speaks of leaving LinkedIn... But his profile is not only active... it Now displays the IN Symbol as though he has upgraded his profile rather than deleted it ?

No, I wasn't Linkedin's lover - and Linkedin wasn't mine. But, when someone asked me whether I'd started having withdrawal symptoms from not going to Linkedin.com for the past couple of days, it reminded me of this wonderful little book called "How To Survive The Loss Of A Love" (by Peter McWilliams, Harold H. Bloomfield, and Melba Colgrove http://www.amazon.com/Survive-Loss-Lo...):

Here's an excerpt to see if you can relate:

LIMBO LOSSES

(Is it on? Is it off? Is it a gain? Is it a loss?)

· awaiting medical tests or reports on their outcome

· a couple on the brink of divorce for the fourteenth time

· a friend, spouse or relative "missing in action"

· lovers, after any quarrel

· a business transaction that may or may not fall through

· a lawsuit

· putting your house up for sale

Limbo losses often feel like this:

My life has fallen down
around me before
--lots of times,
for lots of reasons--
usually other people.

And most of the time
I was fortunate enough
to have a large lump of
that life hit me on the
head and render me numb
to the pain & desolation
that followed.
And I survived.
And I live to love again.

But this,
this slow erosion from below
--or within--
it's me falling down around my life
because you're still in that life
--but not really.
And you're out of that life
--but not quite.

I do all right
alone,
and better
together,
but
I do very poorly
when
semi-
together.
