I've been thinking about exporting my resume to a similar format (hResume or equivalent) for a while; I find LinkedIn of little value for me.
I can imagine that for certain people it offers opportunities to "network", but in my case it is more an invitation for random people to spam me than a tool to connect.
Beyond the resume, I am wondering if it would be possible to build some kind of decentralized professional network, with resumes as nodes and professional/academic relationships in between, maybe even a vetting system (LinkedIn recommendations are not only time consuming but also worthless IMHO).
