Default Plaxo? Any feedback on it?

I was invited to join Plaxo by someone I respect and admire but, after looking over Plaxo site, I decided not to join. Tho' I belong to LinkedIn, I'm very cautious about other social and networking sites. I refused Plaxo because one of their partners is AOL.

The other reason I refused is that I'd prefer to control my address. If others put my addy in their address books, it'd be best if it's someone I trust and am aware of having my addy. I don't need virus problems and so on, thanks.

Now, feel free to berate me, or congratulate me, or whatever but I'd really love to hear your viewpoints on this issue. Thanks!

I agree with your decision Sandi. I don't care for AOL much either and securing personal information is of the upmost importance these days. I'm reluctant to join LinkedIn... is it a good networking tool?

Hi, Layla,

Thanks for your feedback.

As for LinkedIn, I find it to be made up mostly of serious professionals as opposed to teeny boppers like many social networking sites.
