The lovely month of May 2008, initiates The Video of the Month for this blog.

The video below is by VendAsta and NoMoreDoorKnocking (view their blog) up in Canada. It reminds us all to create trustworthy social networking Profiles when we describe ourselves. And, to “trust but verify” when we add contacts to grow our professional networks.

This gets filed under the “Humor” department…. The screen shot below appeared on my monitor when I chose to make a LinkedIn.com connection to a professional colleague with a very basic first name. The result on screen made me laugh out loud. Other LinkedIn.com users will also see the humor.

I shared this with my non-LinkedIn.com-savvy husband, and even he thought it was funny. So, I post this screen shot on my blog to share with you, and to have it available to me the next time I need a laugh.

I’m “Always Learning” that humor appears in the strangest of places, and often when I need it most. Enjoy!
