But once you put that data out there, and you have contacts who can see it, you’ve lost control of that data – any of your contacts could make that data about you public. Truth be told, there is nothing on my LinkedIn or Facebook profiles that isn’t public knowledge, except who my contacts are. 3 KJ 08.09.07

I sat for hours (or days) at a time in front of my screen without contact with the folks I was doing the work for. And, if there was contact, it was most often on the level of “can you fix this?&# “can you add this feature?&# But that was a pale shadow of the kind of work and contact I wanted with my clients.
