LinkedIn is for all of the people you worked with but would never stay in contact with in a social sense. if they ever go on to do something interesting they could hit you up or likewise, but otherwise you can forget about them.

dear insufferable jerk I worked with 7 years ago, my company is doing a temporary $10k referral bonus for hires with your skill set, and while I don't like you on a personal level, the ten grand could go a long way toward making you more palatable. how about your send me your résumé so I can make some money?

LinkedIn is really only useful , IMO , for applying to jobs where it takes your linkedin profile and fills in all the poo poo

Otherwise it's just recruiter spam
