Where in LinkedIn do you change a setting on your profile to become or indicate that you are an “open networker” as you advise?

Dave,

You have to join open network groups like LION, TopLinked or GON groups. You have to say “open networker” in your profile or even after your name.

Jorge:I clicked on audio seminar but it doesn’t work since I don’t get any sound. What am I doing wrong since my computer audio capabilities work? Is there another way to listen to this information?
