Reading the runes

If you have a LinkedIn account you can get a weekly update of what your contacts are up to including new profiles, pictures and requests for references.

Sometimes you can correlate bursts of activity from multiple contacts in the same organisation with impending restructuring or downsizing (aka layoffs). Try it, you may be surprised.

Now if someone could write an app to do this on a large scale they might have a market prediction tool.
