These two site have the ability to connect people. That is an extremely positive thing. They both do it on a different level. Facebook is a true social media site where people get to post their feelings, emotions, and point of views. Although you should never judge a book by its cover it does give you a small look into a persons background.
Linkedin does a very different thing where all you get is a persons professional background and accreditation's. This is a place I will go to check out possible coaches credentials , but I will rather see a Facebook page just to see if they are who they really seem to be. I like to look at Facebook because I feel more connected to the emotional side of things as well as the humor in posts. I also see that it is updated far more than linkedin.
I also see that Facebook has many more participants and that alone is a major plus for networking. Overall Facebook will always be the heavy hitter because it allows more. Linkedin will also have a spot just for surface information and a quick shot of a persons work abilities.
