Do you pronounce "LinkedIn" as "Linked in"?

Got a voiceover back and the vo guy has done it as "Lin-ked-in" all he way through.

What do you lot reckon? Is he right and I am wrong?

Depends on the context.

If he was referring to the name of a house, I'd reckon he was right.

Otherwise, and I suspect he wasn't, he's a cretin. Linked In all the way.

Linked in.

Because you are linked in to the network of professional types.

I cannot believe you need to ask this, as a member of Beex Cell Enttoe Achot Her.
