I would be hard pressed to defend LNKD's valuation. Internet stocks are getting hammered across the board today.

I've been short via puts since the first of October. Linkedin hacked my email and spammed a large number of my friends/acquaintences/clients. Not sure how it happened but I think I 'accepted' a connection to someone(solely to not offend) and over the course of the next two weeks received dozens of acceptances from people I had no intention of connecting with. If fact I've never initiated contact through Linkedin. The puts were not an emotional reaction but a result of some casual evaluation metrics.
