Thanks, done!

FYI to other account-closers, you can download all your connections (the names, at least) by loading e.g. http://www.linkedin.com/profile/profile-v2-connections?id=YO...

I like the idea of a social network for professional contacts, but LinkedIn is just too slimy. I'll just link people to my own website & portfolio in the future.

Why did that require a loading screen and 'widgets'?

But only the first time, after that it's bypassed (even after I clear cookies?). It says "Oracle" on the bottom right, maybe it's some product of theirs...

Edit: oh, every linkedin help center page says "Oracle" in the bottom right? I never understood this kind of branding... does it really help something?
