color:#1F497D'>I’m in favor of OWW group on LinkedIn (facebook too,
though I haven’t gotten around to using that yet). I think LinkedIn
is a valuable network for academic labs, since it connects graduate students
and postdocs to industry and the venture capital world. This is good,
because many students will move on from academia, into networks that are difficult
to grow from scientific meetings alone. I don’t know what Open
Social is, but I’m guessing that LinkedIn is better developed for the purpose
I’m talking about.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Hi Maureen, <br>
I thought that there was a facebook group, but I can't see it, anyone else
remember? <br>
I think I'd be in favor of starting a new social network rather than trying to
create duplicate networks elsewhere, Ricardo, what 's the deal with
Open Social?<br>
<br>
also, (btw Maureen, try this list <a href="mailto:discuss@openwetware.org">discuss@openwetware.org</a>
instead in the future, as we're fazing out the sc list)<br>
cheers, <br>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<br>
<br>
I suggest that OWW get a group designation on LinkedIn (professional<br>
networking) and Facebook (social networking). It might help get more<br>
exposure if the OWW badge were displayed on our pages. What do you think?<br>
