Best of the bunch for professional networking. Just ignore unwanted invitations (if you are weak, simply accept and then dump them later - no alert is sent to the connection!).

Some of the professional groups are well moderated and kept clear of the social/recruitment posts. On balance LinkedIn can be a good source of private work and job offers. (read more)

Generally, I don't like social network sites. This is the stuff of a new generation, and good luck to them - sitting at a terminal and telling the world what you are doing (which, by definition, is "nothing", if you are at your computer... ).
I do, however, accept and try to exploit the value of professionally-focused network/contact sites. For me, linkedin is probably the best of the bunch. It may not be the longest-running and there are others like Xing that have superior functionality...
