LinkedIn Time Capsule: 500K, 2M, 5M, 20M users and counting...
LinkedIn may have grown from 0 to 21 million professionals over the past few years (we're pretty close to our anniversary actually) but the one thing that's remained constant over these years, besides the tradition of taking pictures like the ones you see below, are the absolutely talented and fun teams responsible for bringing you these features. So, here's a slideshow featuring pictures of our teams through the years - a great way to bring the week to a close.
* 20M users - Mountain View
* 13M users - Mountain View
* 5M users - Palo Alto
* 2M users - Palo Alto
* 500K users - Palo Alto
* Way back when? - Mountain View
This was one of the first few pictures taken of our second office in Mountain View, Shoreline, pretty close to where our offices are situated right now. Thanks to Jean-Luc Vaillant for sharing some of these pictures. And, in case you're wondering who's that working away in the pictures below - that'd be Ian McNish.
Have a great weekend!

This comment isn't really specific to this post, but at least related to the growth and further success of LinkedIn.
I'm almost done with my final year of my MSc at the largest technical university in Sweden (KTH, Royal Institute of Technology). I'm trying to pitch LinkedIn to my classmates, which is successful to some extent, but a lot of people don't know much about LinkedIn.
The most common misunderstanding I hear is that LinkedIn is just a simple, less used copy of Facebook (of course they never tried it).
Don't you have any promotional material like posters or similar? I would be happy to put them up over here...
