About
What is XING?
XING makes your professional network an active part of your life. Far more than a directory of business contacts, XING enables its members to discover professional people, opportunities and privileges through its unique discovery capability and advanced contact management tools.
With the successful IPO of XING as the first Web 2.0 company to go public, XING AG has had a long-term impact on the social networking trend amongst professionals. By focusing on the target group “business people worldwide”, the company is able to offer tailored features, thereby making networking and contact management simpler. Besides Headquarters in Hamburg, XING AG is also represented with offices in Barcelona, Istanbul and Beijing.
XING. Powering Relationships.
What is openBLOG?
openBLOG is the company weblog of XING.
Why do we blog?
For us blogging is a unique opportunity to directly communicate with people outside of our company. We care about your opinion and learn a lot from your feedback – your ideas and thoughts inspire us for the future.
On openBLOG we write about our work, about new ideas and developments and about recent trends in the social software area. We would like to give you a regular insight in our "XING world" and show the people behind XING from a personal side.
