LinkedIn, has anyone here had any experience of using it?

[Flying10uk]

On browsing through some job adverts recently, I noticed that it was asked if the potential applicant had a LinkedIn account. Not being very up to date with these matters I didn't know what the hell they were talking about but I did google it to try to find answer. Apparently you place your C.V. online for others to look at, in the hope of being offered a job or, perhaps, a better job than you have at present. I wondered if any Forum members have taken advantage of this "service" and what their experience was/is of using it, please? Is it a useful tool for finding employment or do you get the unwanted attention of time wasters and undesirables? Thanks for any information.
