I've had numerous discussions with folks about projects that all involve LinkedIn data. People always seem to assume they're the first people to have idea X. After digging in about 18 months ago, I saw how limiting the LinkedIn API was, and that basically none of the functionality people wanted to do was possible. technically possible? yes, for a while. Legally? It's outside their terms of use, and you'd either get shut down or sued.
