Gorgeous nine IT authorities LinkedIn version of CIO

Given the fact that more than 380 million people are registered on LinkedIn, it is quite difficult to separate flies from cutlets. I present to you a list of nine people who are among the most active and respected LinkedIn users in the technology industry.

LinkedIn commissioned by CIO recently combed its user base to identify the most active and influential users working in the IT industry. Since it would be possible to make a list of the entire database that goes well beyond a thousand participants, it was decided to limit it to the regularity of posts, native English and the consent of the participant. Thus the list was formed. In general, all lists have their advantages, although many do not really like them. For example, I often get lucky and I find in the lists various interesting characters that are just not to be found. Well, let's get started.
