LinkedIn is awesome.

I think the LinkedIn is pretty awesome.  Most people I've talked to have had a mixed experience with it so far, but I think with the addition of Groups and with their excellent work with Jobs, they're really valuable.

Luckily, they are making things happen for students looking for jobs.

LinkedIn has a resource for college grads and is offering a free premium account for users who go through the three steps listed in the grad guide (to get to a 80% complete profile): http://grads.linkedin.com/ 

From personal experience looking for a job in start-ups two years ago, LinkedIn can be a great resource for finding interesting companies, finding "ins" at start-ups, and vetting opportunities and offers.
