LinkedIn is becoming the network for busy people aged 25-65, the time when, co-founder Reid Hoffman says "people are most valuable, when they are out changing the world." Membership is growing exponentially and the company is profitable and on track to hit $100 million in revenue by 2008. How? Beyond ads, recruiters and corporate members pay big money to access the whole network. Let's face it. By the time you hit your 30s, you don't need a lot of new friends - you need contacts. Forget MySpace. Increasingly, if you're not LinkedIn, you're left out.
