Yet another ‘professional’ social networking tool launching
I still haven’t registered on BranchOut - despite many many requests to do so and I didn’t do anything with all the Emails I was receiving a few weeks ago asking if I was taking on new clients (what was that one called?). So surprised to see that yet another professional social networking tool is launching tomorrow. Called BeKnown it is, just like BranchOut, launching as a Facebook app. This one has some pedigree though, as Monster, the online job search site is behind it. They are using Facebook as it makes no sense to reinvent the wheel and most people are already on Facebook. They are also using some gamifying stuff, such as badges for professional achievements - it will be interesting to see how that translates to a professional network. When BranchOut launched I wasn’t sure if there was a need for it as LinkedIn and Facebook already exist. Is there even room for any more?

I joined BranchOut because it reaches an entire audience of job seekers who never heard of LinkedIn. Is there room for another? Probably…
