All,

Do we have a group created on linkedin.com for LUNI members?

For those not familiar with LinkedIn, it's a networking site for professional networking. You get references from colleagues and others on LinkedIn that you can take to prospective employers, lines on new jobs, etc.

I did see that someone set up a group for the CLUG people...

Should we create a group for LUNI as well? If so, does anyone want to volunteer to be the group admin? Your duties will likely be to approve users wishing to add the group to their networks.

I went ahead and created the group. So it's "pending approval" at the
moment.

I don't mind being the group admin unless someone has a strong urge to
do it. Otherwise I'll let everyone know when it's up and running.

Do we have a logo to use for it?

Speaking of getting organized, weren't we supposed to do something
with LUNI and have a few more meetings regarding consolidating some of
the lugs in the area .....

We have a good graphics person at work - I could ask her to whip one up.
What would we want it to look like? I was thinking of a waning moon,
with tux sitting in the hook. :-)

Ok, just got the note today that the LUNI group has been created.
Feel free to add to it if you want.

I put LUNI under my Groups and Associations section at LinkedIn as
have others { Derek, Rick, Seva, Steven }.

"CLUG" is not CLUG, but a nascent group with one member: ChicagoLand
Gentran Integration Suite (GIS) Users Group.

The only downside of LinkedIn, imo, is that one must signup to see
someone's "public" profile as in:

To view Douglas J. Trainor’s profile on LinkedIn, sign up below ...
it's free!

LinkedIn can a replacement for felling trees for making a résumé plus
the usual blast-from-the-past effect of finding long lost people.
