LinkedIn Vs Facebook

I think both are significant and we cannot ignore any of them just because it has less worth. Both are helpful and necessary for businesses in their own way.

LinkedIn is more use for building the network related to the business community. FOr leads prospective facebook is good than Linkedin...

Linked in is more for the professional types
Facebook is for over all socializing
Twitter is for blogging a sentance

The main difference between the two sites is, Facebook is, this class of sites registered for the whole family, you can create a network, they interact.

I couldn't agree more, Linkedin will give you a more niche focus and easier accessibility to people who have an interest in your product or service. Facebook has more users but you'll get more quality with linkedin

These two has different use for different purpose and they are both useful.

FaceBook is a plaything while LinkedIn at slightest makes several effort at being an expert reserve so it's a morsel like comparing apples and oranges.

The major difference between the sites is facebook is such kind of site where the whole relatives get registered and they could interact and generate the network.

I agree. I am a member of both but find LinkedIn rather boring and restrictive. I have a personal facebook account and a business page.

Linkedin is a professinals social network while facebook is a general social network.

Facebook has revealed many new applications. I recently see the fan page stack application, you can freely design branded fan page to attract the customers.

I don't think facebook should be viewed soley as a social network, it is very powerful for business.

suppose use an angle:
face: b2c, c2c networking
linkedin: b2b networking

hope that angle helps to generate your own strategy in executing your works!

haha. you don't say. LinkedIn is more like "I know this and that" but never gets the chance to converse with them there. It's like a social media site full of CVs. However, you can join groups where you can discuss things and really socialize. Facebook connects people and business, plain and simple.

I realized huge difference in the mechanism followed between both of them. Facebook allows latest and unique features on the site making it very user-friendly. On the other hand.. LinkedIn is quite professional in terms of adding connections.. conversing with them(which is nearly impossible)..

Hello,

In my opinion, LinkedIn is more for proffesional business, not like Facebook, which can be perfet for every kind of business.
Also, the interface of Facebook is more friendly and easy to use than LinkedIn. which also contribute to the fact of using in Facebook.
