Your comment set off a chain of thought that resulted in me deleting my LinkedIn account. Thank you for that.

LOL. Can you please elaborate on what happened :)

Maybe they can now use some sort of direct access to your address book for their...ah, promotional emails.

"Hello sir,

You must really hate android!

It's not bad, my Nexus 7 has been an adequate appliance of a walled garden variety, so I don't want or expect a flexible operating system. It comes with all the apps I will ever need from it, such as book reader and browser. I do really hate the google plus nagging I experience every now and then.

...why? What LinkedIn integration does Android have?

It has Google integration to the point of being obnoxious.

you must not know android if you only ever used samsung (or google for that matter) flavours
