These two sites are similar in that they are a social networking platform. The similarity stops there. To me Facebook is a recreational or personal social media tool. It gives people a way to communicate and share personal information. It seems to be geared for a persons personal life.
LinkedIn is a more professional portfolio media. It contains more professional material and is geared as more of a way to connect and link to other professionals. It is a way for an individual or company to showcase their professional accomplishments and goals. It is also a way for a person to network with other professionals across a wide variety of professions, but also can be used to network with other professionals in the same profession.
