Bike Friday and tikit LinkedIn Groups (update)

Have been trying to talk Bike Friday into sponsoring and getting a LinkedIn group going but no one has taken the bait. You know what they say about asking forgiveness instead of permission...

I've put in requests to LinkedIn for two LinkedIn groups and they should be up and ready to go in a couple of days. One for "Bike Friday Affectionados", and another for "tikit drivers". If anyone has better ideas for group names I'm all ears.

Just created a couple of text based logos so need some creative juices from you BF folks!

Each group will need 2 logos.

Logo #1 should be 100x50 pixels; PNG, JPEG, GIF; max size 100 KB
Logo #2 should be 60x30 pixels; PNG, JPEG, GIF; max size 100 KB

You can post your ideas in the comments section or email me at logoideas (at) fucawe (dot) com.

Groups are up and working.

If you are a LinkedIn member you can hit my LinkedIn profile and request to join by clicking the applicable groups in the Groups section (lower part of the page).

tikit Commuting and LinkedIn

Well ran into a "new" LinkedIn group (that already had 395 members when I joined!) today while surfing: Bicycle to Work!

If you are a LinkedIn member you can hit my LinkedIn profile and request to join by clicking the wheel icon in the Groups section (lower part of the page).

Once you are a member you can request to connect to other members of the group pretty easily. Feel free to send me a connection request and mention you found it on the blog...

Ran into this LinkedIn group in a comments post on the Copenhagenize the Planet blog. Jeff Stevenson said:

Hi. Please join the Bicycle to Work! LinkedIn networking group. Members pledge that they will try to ride their bicycle to work or on an errand at least once a week. Although the benefits should be obvious, let me outline them here. (snip)
I guess I meet the minimum requirements since I just busted 1700 miles (since Jan 1, 2008) on my commute home today...
