Although My Space has the largest number of unique users (60 million), it only grew by 8% in the last year compared to Facebook’s 98% growth (25 million unique users). However, LinkedIn grew by a whopping 319% over the prior year to the current position of almost 7 million unique users.
Below is a “link” (no pun intended) to the Bnet article with full statistics.

LinkedIn is a great way to connect with other business people and see their expericne. I have started a group for BYU MBA Alumni. If more people would be interested I could change it to be a Management Society group.
Let me know.
Keldon: Have you checked out LDS Connected through LinkedIn? It has been approved by the Church for our members.
I don’t normally leave comments… but I really enjoyed your post! I will be leaving a link back here in my blogroll! Thanks!

You may want to keep your BYU MBA group and invite them to join the larger (includes non-BYU MBAs) BYUMS group.
