You need to find a couple of people who have Linkedin accounts. Those connections will then give you access to their connections to the 3rd degree. I believe you send a formal invitation to the connections that you want and if they reply, they add you to their connections.
Unfortunately, LinkedIn is not a real-time advice network.
You can ask questions on LinkedIn and will often get answers quickly, but that may not happen.
A more practical answer is to find a mailing list for your profession and begin to use it. The strength of LinkedIn is in making one on once connections through introductions, or in researching specific individuals and companies.
