Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) loves social networking. No doubt, the company thinks there's a potential goldmine there.
Hey, the firm recently invested $240 million in Facebook -- at a whopping $15 billion valuation. In fact, Bill Gates even setup a public profile on the social network. But there was a problem; that is, too many people wanted to be his friend. Bill was actually getting about 8,000 requests per day.
As a result, he shut down his profile.
Well, Bill hasn't given up. He's now going to go on LinkedIn and answer questions regarding his philanthropic efforts (this is according to a story in C/NET).
To me, LinkedIn's Q&A feature is great (I've even used it to get sources for my stories). Although, as for Bill, I'm sure there will be a flood of questions. Keep in mind that LinkedIn has 19 million registered users.
