The latest place to meet new friends and business contacts isn’t in the flesh. It’s online. Whether you’re part of a tribe; linked in or just spoken for, you’re part of the latest wave of people who are using the internet to leverage their social and business networks. It’s all based on the principle that it’s not your strong personal ties that land you the new job or get you that contract, but it’s those weak ties, those second and third degree connections that do the trick. But how does it work and how can you make it work for you? Is the future of networking truly online?
