Consolidate Your Contacts And Save Keystrokes

I went through the steps in the Excerpt of David Grigsby’s book
and it worked. I had 51 contacts in Linkedin. The eMail feedback showed "Result: Total records processed: 51, Leads created: 51".
(I pasted that from the eMail that gives me the feedback from the import).
I went to SalesForce.com to check and the new ones have create date 1/7/2010. I'm using SalesForce.com to log my progress on contacting leads for a new job. This sure helps me consolidate contacts and use SalesForce like a CallCenter to track my progress with each contact.
Thanks for helping me save keystrokes David.

I also like that the imported ones show a status "Open - Not Contacted" so that gives me a List from Linkedin that are now on SalesForce that I can Contact and Track.
