Obama and LinkedIn

September 12th, 2007 by Benjamin Kuo

Anyone who has been using the LinkedIn social networking service (which tends to be people in the venture capital/high tech/business area) might have noticed that Presidential candidate Barack Obama just posted a question to the Small Business section. Just for fun, I checked my own network to see if anyone other candidates were anywhere near linked to people I know:

Linked: Barack Obama, Rudy Giuliani

Not linked: Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Sam Brownback, Bill Richardson, John Edwards, Christopher Dodd, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, Mike Huckabee, Chuck Hagel

(btw, congrats to Jon Burke, who publishes the venture focused alarm:clock, for beating out the rest of the world to answer Obama’s question first!)
