I signed up to LinkedIn a while back, although I haven't really done a lot with it to be honest. This is something I have been meaning to change, so thank you Rudai 23 for the encouragement. Outside the information arena I also work as a cartoonist, the reason I joined LinkedIn first time round was because I received an invite from a client. As I said I rarely use it in my 'cartooning life', so I've decided to edit it and use it strictly for my 'library life'. The thing I look forward to most about using LinkedIn is getting involved in discussions with other information professionals. I have read discussions on various websites including CILIP and Twitter, but I am yet to contribute anything myself. That's about to change...
When I started this blog for Rudai23 I used this image as my profile picture...
On reflection I feel it will be better to use an 'real' photograph as my profile picture, mainly because it appears more professional but also because it will match the one that I use on my LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and Goodreads profiles. I have another blog for my cartooning work, for this I will continue to use the drawing above.
I intend to continuing utilising my drawing skills on this blog by adding illustrations to posts thus making my professional brand stand out.
