[OWW-Discuss] OWW logo on facebook and LinkedIn

[Jason Kelly]

OK, LinkedIn group now exists.  It seems like a pretty new feature for
them, and I can't figure out how to link to the group page.  If you
search OpenWetWare or go to my profile in linkedIn you should be able
to click the logo and sign up.

thanks,
jason
