LinkedIn still exists and still seems to think they are a separate company.

Rumor has it that Satya is furious he still gets so many LinkedIn emails, but is keeping hands off.

Well, he's exhibiting far more self control than I would be able to. Linked-in has the worst email practices of any legitimate company I can think of.

But their email spam can be contained. It took me a couple of years but now they have gone almost completely silent.

Maybe it's ageism?!?! ;-)
