I run a LinkedIn alumni group for a division of a company I used to work for. I am seeing the same thing. I amazes me that people ask to join the group that never worked at the company let alone within the division. In general I think LinkedIn is better than most social networking sites, but there are those that think that size (of their network) is better than quality.
