Poor naming, in my opinion. Don't be surprised to receive a letter from LinkedIn's legal team. I suggest renaming the project ASAP to avoid any potential trademark-related issues.

#12Not a fan of the name. I read it as linked in, thinking it was a bookmark service by linked in at first. Perhaps, the counter positive, dinkling.
