Distributed P2P LinkedIn query system
Linkedin (free version) is extremely search restrictive for a social network, economically makes sense for them with all the professional data/ networks, but i'm tired of making inroads for finding data on what career paths are available only to be popped up with irritating "limited search results to be viewed" or "opt for Linkedin premium" to view more profile, etc. As a result was wondering if we could build a distributed query system (p2p) which leverages user's own LK accounts and queries LK and sends curated results. It should be free for everyone to use - their currency is giving the platform access to their LK profile. What do you folks think? 0 comments on Hacker News.
