I'm a huge fan of making introductions, but remember the double-opt-in introduction:

it's the right way to go about doing this, so you don't inadvertently waste people's time, leak information about something that wasn't public, etc.

Dan - great point, and thanks for reminding me about folks who want a brokered intro.

I don't know if it's a change in the areas I'm working in, or because my network has reached some sort of critical mass, but I've found myself doing a lot of introducing over the last year or so.

It's strangely satisfying to get folk who should talk, to talk.
