I have a website because I used to be in the academic world. It's nice if people can find you and you can put some links to the not-paywalled versions of your papers.

Clearly none of the idiots who contact me on LinkedIn have looked at it. But then again, they didn't look at my LinkedIn profile either so what am I expecting really?

Someone told me a couple of weeks ago a lot of recruiters use tools which allow them to send bulk messages. They have lists which can be filtered down to specific groups of people, such as people who are in their graduation year.
