3 Profiles, Am I right?

Hi Irina,
site:linkedin.com inurl:in OR inurl:pub C++ AND Java "San Francisco Bay Area" "Connections * 1 connection"

The result in google showed 3 profiles.
When you click on Joong-Ho (Johann) Won - the profile shows 5 connections. When you use Cached it shows 1 connection.

Thanks for the chance!

Theresa, Christine,
There's more than 3 profiles. Try again?

Irina
13

google site search
linkedin.com (JAVA AND C++) "san francisco bay area" "1 connection"
10 Profiles

site:linkedin.com "san francisco bay area" "1 connection" java* c++
Rosemary, Minal,

Not 10, not 13. Try again?

I get 39 with this search on Yahoo - "San Francisco Bay Area" Java "C++" "1 connection" -inurl:dir -inurl:jobs -inurl:events then clicking on the Linkedin results button on the left hand side
Andrea,

39 results on yahoo - great! 39 is not the right answer though.

You are close! Can you explain how you got the answer?

How about people with zero connections?

Question to all: can you use yahoo to find profiles with zero connections? If not, why not?
38 Profiles. Out of the 40 profiles one profile has 2 connections & the other one seems to be a company profile - HiFi Logics Inc.
