It's really about creating genuine human connections without any agenda...although personally I always seek to add value or contribute in some way. I look for who can I connect you with or what information can I share with you that would be helpful? That sort of thing. From that mindset, networking is really fun! :D You are so right!

I think people look at networking from two angles - one set of people think that networking is trying to manipulate others, to connect with them so that in future they can help them. The second group of people get into "networking" when they think they need some help. I believe networking is more about learning and sharing your own unique gifts with others. The approach should not be "what I can get from my network in future", rather, "how we can create value for each other, and the broader society as a whole by getting to know each other". From that point of view, I like your idea of netconnecting. Cheers These are great tips.
