Linked in sent me an email saying that an astounding 209 of my connections changed jobs in 2010, out of about 800 contacts in my network. That seems like a lot doesn’t it? I don’t know if it’s accurate, but if it is that’s a lot of job moving! LinkedIn did a nice job on the email, including the graphic below? Are you included?

i had the same reaction when i got a similar email. As i looked deeper, some of the folks added or modified their primary job. This may have been a simple title change, or an additional item from volunteering that showed up, thus causing the summary to be that they had changed jobs.
I did in fact change jobs, and mine was accurate. But others i investigated didnt change jobs, just info.
Still, it is an interesting bit of data to send out, and makes me want to use LinkedIn more.
