Huge fan of Linkedin. It’s the primary way I stay in touch my friends and work colleagues from the last 20 years. Barely use Facebook, but use Linkedin daily. So, when I was trying to filter some of my connections – frustrated, and not working well – I decided to simply download a CSV list of my contacts. Find the details.
- Click on Network (Top menu bar)
- Click on See all connections (top left)
- Click on Manage synched and imported contacts (top right)
- Click on Export contact (bottom right)
This creates a download of all your contacts, their basic information, and when you first connected. Was curious, so I graphed a histogram of when I got my contacts. No surprise, when you change jobs, there are lots of people to get to know.
- Click one Me (top right), then Settings and Privacy
- Click on the middle Privacy tab (blue color, in the middle)
- Scroll down to Download your Data (middle of the page)
- Select The works
