Thanks for detailed answer. Wondering if:

1. we build this as browser extension for LinkedIn profile page

2. Or ask people to input their LinkedIn profile page, Twitter handle, GitHub etc & interactively answer questions.

I see this as a tool for recruiters & hiring managers. Great!

I'm sticking to just URLs for now because they can go anywhere but eventually if it actually becomes a bigger thing, I'd make it easy to integrate into anything (extensions, iframes to put on your personal website, etc).

Also, does anyone else find it ironic that we put LinkedIn links onto our resumes even though it's usually older/more out of date/emptier than the resume. My dream is that a link to your AI profile is on your resume, LinkedIn, etc instead. Give people a way to dig deeper instead of just circularly referencing things.

And yes, doing integrations to your twitter, github, LinkedIn, etc is something I was thinking about too. That being said, you as a candidate might not want all that searchable. I certainly don't. I wanted more control about what was said about me when asked certain questions so I went the import, edit, add route with Snippets (which are like Q/A pair tweets about your career).
