LinkedIn’s Groups feature hasn’t quite reached maturity yet, but my friend and occasional colleague Zack Frazier hasn’t let that get in his way. Zack recently launched the Chicago Front-End Web Developers group as a way to help UI specialists network and connect.
According to their site, the LinkedIn folks are apparently hard at work making Groups more useful:
The groups directory is not currently open. We are working on creating a searchable directory for all groups. If there are groups you wish to join, you may click on the group logo from the profile of a group member and request to join.
In the meantime, you can join Chicago Front-End Web Developers using this direct link. Joining allows you to put your loyalties on display to prospective contacts (see screenshot).
UI folks, stand and be counted!
