Hello Guys,

some of you may wonder where this posting from yesterday went?
Well, i ahd to learn that since there are very new posting rules since last year, really NO links in the discuission board postings are allowed anymore.

And NO links means really NO links, not even such one which are pointing to pm.com propertys.
Somewhat strange imho, but ...well. Somewhat consequent on the other hand.

However, i hope just to ask (without any links!) is allowed.

So, if you wasn't be aware of the pm.com linkedin group yet, than please use the social share options/buttons right under the search function (i.e.) to find out.

I think we could grow at linkedin to one of the biggest and may be most active pm related groups there.

Hope to see you there soon.

Regards,

Markus

Hi Markus,

Can you ellaborate on this please. I did not really understand what is going on ?

We can't attached links to useful information in the discussion board or is it something else ? As for LinkedIn, there is projectmanagement.com group, not pm.com or at least i did not find it. And what are the share buttons you are referring to.

I apologize but I am a little bit confused here.

Hi Rami,

apologies for making you confused. That was not my intention here.

With pm.com i ment the projectmanagement.com linkedin group (just shortcutted it, cause there are so many letters to wright ... ;) ).

With the social share buttons i am targeting on the "Facebook"; Twitter and LinkedIn Buttons right under the search function ...

About the allowed or not allowed linkings i am also still a bit confused.

But please refer this blog entry:

"Check Out the User Gudelines!"

in the "criticalpath" blog. (would have been MUCH easier and faster to link this btw).

Hope this clears your doubts, Rami.

regards,

Markus

Thank You Markus, I will check it out and see what is the issue. I saw this sentence in the User Guidelines but I doubt they do not allow links that are useful for knowledge sharing, maybe they are referring to links that are irrelevant to the PM.

I will dig more into this.

As for LinkedIn page, I took time before they accept my request as well but it might be taking time now because they are on holidays. It is good they are strict in approval to join the group.

You have to request permission to join some of the LinkedIn groups, my request is still pending.

I'll take a look at the guidelines.

Hello Glauco,

since LinkedIn changes its policys e few weeks ago now all group joining requests have to be moderated by the group administrator (which is Rebecca Braglio in this case, like Rami already mentioned).

There are no longer so called public groups possible where you just have could joined with a click (and the pm.com group was suchone before i think).

However, i am sure that Rebecca will promote all the request as fast as possible.

Regards,

Markus

Hello Rami,

i could asure you, it is not only about links which are not related to PM.
It is all links, even such ones which are pointing to pm.com content (what really seems strange to me).
I had a little conversation with Rebecca about this and she confirmed that they do not want any kind of links in the postings since they want the conversations at pm.com and not elsewhere.

We will see like this will develope ...

Regards,

Markus

That's a nice holiday!

I joined Facebook, twitter and linkedin links but there is absolutely no useful activity on any one of them. moreover, I do not see how that can interface with projectanagement.com postings.

I think the SM are siloed. I quite enjoy the facebook one. I can't speak for LinkedIN. And twitter speaks for itself on any platform IMHO.

Hello Suhail,

well with the useful activity there it is the same like directly here on pm.com, i would say. It depends on all of us, on the community to generate useful activity there.

LinkedIn could be a great tool for promoting pm.com within the biggest business-related social network in the world, for example.

Regards,

Markus

Double check with Rebecca, I believe she is the one handling the group if I am not mistaken.
