Quick Recommendations Service for LinkedIn (Feedback)
1 point by nmr on June 28, 2011 | hide | past | favorite
Hi all,

Some time ago I had some colleagues requesting me to write them some recommendations through LinkedIn and honestly I just thought what everyone thinks just before writing recommendations: "Boooooooring task!".

After this I just thought: why not describing someone in 3 skills and use that as a recommendation? After all, threewords.me was a huge success! And then I started developing Top3Skills.com using the LinkedIn API...

Now I am here and I would love to hear your feedback. Basically what I would like to know is:

- Is the User Experience good enough? Any ideas for improvement?

- Do you think that LinkedIn could benefit from a feature like this? Basically I just merged LinkedIn Skills with LinkedIn Recommendations and created a Quick Recommendations Service.

You can find the App here: http://top3skills.com and some screenshots here: http://top3skills.tumblr.com
