Bill Gates here, Linking in

Bill Gates is Linked In.

And on Thursday you too could be connected to the Microsoft maestro

This according to email from the LinkedIn spokespeeps:

“This Thursday, Bill Gates, Chairman of Microsoft, will post a question on LinkedIn. His objective is to communicate with LinkedIn’s base of over 19 million professional members, in order to expand his own expertise on how technology can be better utilized for charitable causes. All LinkedIn members will be able to post answers/suggestions to Bill’s question in real time.”

Here’s BillG’s LinkedIn page.

Note: Bill and Melinda only have two connections.
