LinkedIn makes compartmentalizing pretty easy – although across experiences – by streaming your contacts’ posts. But I wonder how many of them are feeding in their tweets….

Great post. I agree with you and will go further to say that with Groups – Facebook becomes even more interesting for maintaining professional relationships than it has been. The lack of compartmentalization has been a hindrance till date.

If users can switch context from personal to professional within the same experience – that is truly powerful. I am sure Linkedin is looking at this closely.
