Check Your Privacy Filters: Facebook Wants To Be the New LinkedIn (cnet.com)

From a report on CNET: Facebook isn't just for wasting time in the office. It can now help you find a new job entirely. The social network has unveiled a Jobs page, which allows businesses to list all kinds of work for you to find. You can even apply for the job and make contact with recruiters directly through Facebook. This could be seen as a challenge to competing services such as LinkedIn, the recruiting network acquired by Microsoft last December. But while LinkedIn is entirely focused on business, Facebook's social aspects could make it easier for potential employers to trawl your profile for details of your personal life.

Yeah, no thanks.

I do my best to keep my personal and professional personas separate.

I share politically incorrect jokes and use profanity on my Facebook page but I would never do anything of the kind on LinkedIn.

I don't even list my employer on my FB profile.
