Another rumour just came up and this time it’s all about the popular business social networking platform LinkedIn.

From TechCrunch UK:

An unconfirmed rumour has reached me via a reliable source that LinkedIn is in talks with media giant News Corporation over a possible buyout in January 2008. The reason I am running with this, is that the source is very well-placed. Furthermore, the rumour has the fundamental ring of truth about it. Consider the following.

A rumour is always a rumour, but Mike Butcher from TC UK makes some good points. LinkedIn is surely mainstream now and more and more people are efficiently using it. It’s time for a big deal.

I shared my comments already and I believe that the time for a buyout is close to come. Let’s stay tuned…
