Web’s Largest BlackBerry Community Comes to LinkedIn Groups

Last week we spoke with Hayden James, the president of PinStack.com. PinStack.com is the web's largest BlackBerry community with more than 300,000 members.

On March 14th, 2008, PinStack announced it had officially chosen LinkedIn for Groups to facilitate professional networking for its members.

Here's James' thoughts on the group's decision to go with LinkedIn:

Based on our website demographics, LinkedIn is a perfect fit for PinStack's group for a variety of reasons, including its ease-of-use, efficiency, the seniority of members and its privacy standards. Approximately 40% percent of PinStack.com members already use LinkedIn to generate business opportunities. By joining the PinStack group on LinkedIn individual members enhance their network and open doors leading to business opportunities and BlackBerry professionals on an international level.

If you're a BlackBerry user/fanatic, here's the invitation to join the PinStack group on LinkedIn:

By joining the PinStack group on LinkedIn, members will be able to access other PinStack members and Blackberry professionals directly or through referrals from shared contacts. Members also have access to the group directory with rich contact information, professional histories and endorsements. Members can also conduct focused searches on group members using criteria such as geography and areas of interest.

Needless to stay, we're pleased that this group of professionals is choosing to network online via LinkedIn.
