Fellow Oracle bloggers, please join our LinkedIn group

If you’re a fellow Oracle blogger, please join the new LinkedIn group “Oracle Bloggers”. This will help you to get (and keep) in touch with fellow Oracle bloggers. You’ll be able to contact each other, and we can use it to facilitate things like the bloggers dinner at Oracle OpenWorld. Having the “Oracle Bloggers” group logo on your profile page might also be an asset to your LinkedIn profile, but that’s your own call

If you’ve already got a LinkedIn account, you can also look at the current members before joining. The group will accept anyone with an Oracle related blog aggregated at orablogs.com, orana.info or listed at blogs.oracle.com. Please give it some thought, and join.

PS. If you know any other Oracle bloggers, please ask them to join as well.

If you’ve never heard about LinkedIn, here is their own introduction:

LinkedIn is an online network of more than 14 million experienced professionals from around the world, representing 150 industries.

When you join, you create a profile that summarizes your professional accomplishments. Your profile helps you find and be found by former colleagues, clients, and partners. You can add more connections by inviting trusted contacts to join LinkedIn and connect to you.

Your network consists of your connections, your connections’ connections, and the people they know, linking you to thousands of qualified professionals.

Through your network you can:

• Find potential clients, service providers, subject experts, and partners who come recommended
• Be found for business opportunities
• Search for great jobs
• Discover inside connections that can help you land jobs and close deals
• Post and distribute job listings
• Find high-quality passive candidates
• Get introduced to other professionals through the people you know

LinkedIn is free to join. We also offer paid accounts that give you more tools for finding and reaching the right people, whether or not they are in your network.
