Challenges
• Although the following does not apply directly
to LinkedIn, it is considered part of "Web 2.0."
According to McKinsey & Company, only 21%
of business executives said they are
extremely or very satisfied with their
company's use of Web 2.0 tools. Clearly a

• Criticism for changes and limitations placed
on its users including not showing the actual
number of connections (i.e. LinkedIn only
shows 500+ as opposed to the actual
number), restricting membership to no more
than 50 groups and limiting the total number or
invitations.
