Why does it keep sending me e-mails?” “Really? They have new users?” a colleague wrote in a note to me. Some have raised the specter of a rising “social media bubble,” suggesting the high values placed on companies like LinkedIn are too high. But LinkedIn? It’s always struck me as being useful only when you don’t have a job. Google would be a huge IPO, even back in 2004, because, well, we all use Google all of the time. Investors interested in getting exposure to LinkedIn can do so by investing in Microsoft (MSFT), but should understand that LinkedIn will make only a limited impact on the bottom line of the company.

Also, we will look at a seventh deal: Microsofts pending acquisition of Nuance. The increase in sales came from the company’s hiring solutions, a paid offering which helps recruiters search for professionals and list jobs on the site. LinkedIn, Skype, Mojang, GitHub, aQuantive, and ZeniMax are major.
Net income increased to $2.08 million, from $1.81 million in Q1 2010. However, predicting whether a stock will have more buyers or sellers takes more analysis. When people try to sell stock rather than buy it, the price drops. The price of a stock rises as people want to purchase it rather than selling it. As we wrote yesterday, LinkedIn is growing revenue-the company just reported that Q1 revenue in 2011 was up 110 percent to $93.9 million. According to research we have done, stock rates fluctuate due to supply and demand. The professional social network is set to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange this Thursday, under the symbol LNKD.Ĭlearly, LinkedIn is upping the price of the offering because its expects that Wall Street will respond to this increase positively. The funds could also be used for acquisitions or investments in complimentary technologies. LinkedIn says it will use these funds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital, sales and marketing activities, general and administrative matters and capital expenditures.

One engineering manager at Twitter received a list from Musk's advisers naming hundreds of people the manager was supposed to fire, and he subsequently threw up into a trash can nearby, according to an article published in the New York Times on Friday chronicling the turmoil at Twitter during Musk's first two weeks in charge. Twitter has laid off thousands of employees in the past week, and it hasn't gone smoothly to say the least - for either the employees getting the ax or some of the ones tasked with firing them.
