Looks nice but gonna be a bit off topic and ranty, I really don't want to bother about resumes and their formats anymore. Is it really not acceptable to give a LinkedIn URL when asked for a resume, or as a recruiter if you see my LinkedIn profile, why do you still ask a resume? I think it looks well enough to replace any resume in any format, and its generally available. (of course if you don't choose to limit it to only 1st level connections)

Farsighted Note: I am aware of PDF export feature, but its very ugly..

For one thing, as an interviewer it is nice to have a hard copy resume to refer to on the fly
I don't really get the reasoning behind the downvotes. Still on topic enough to have a discussion about. Someone care to elaborate ?
It's not ugly on Chrome! But for other browsers, still need some works to optimize.
Bit of a misunderstanding here, I was referring to LinkedIn's feature of Export Profile as PDF
