Why LinkedIN Should Have A Virtual Currency (skepticgeek.com)
3 points by lmohdlp on Dec 2, 2009 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment



I don't use LinkedIn much so maybe I'm missing something, but what exactly would people use credits for? Virtual currency has been very successful for games, but LinkedIn doesn't have any games.

If their developer program is successful and 3rd party app developers utilize virtual currency then it would make more sense (like what Facebook is planning with credits)
