LinkedIn is one of the few sites where I use my real name. It is for connecting with past and future coworkers, so they get my real identity.

    Why not present ones? And how do you know who you'll work with in the future?

    Right, I forgot that LinkedIn calls contacts "connection", doesn't it? I meant it in the sense of messaging them.

    I have it for talking to past coworkers (in case I need a reference or want to discuss equity or something) and for talking to recruiters when I am looking for a job. My past two jobs I heard about via LinkedIn messages.
