Oneupweb Reviews: LinkedIn Twitter Upgrade
For a long time, LinkedIn was viewed as somewhat useless. Once you set-up a profile, what then? This lack of usefulness is illustrated in the SuperNews!: Linked In… To What? video below:
So is LinkedIn useless? Well not anymore. LinkedIn has recently added a Follow Company Feature, and announced yesterday a major upgrade to its Tweets Application.
Once logged-in, install the Tweets Application by clicking ‘Add Application.’
Next you’ll be given a couple of settings options – choose your preference, and Voila! Now you can view your Twitter account from your LinkedIn profile. Here’s what it looks like:
You can send tweets, share links, and see all the people you are following. The social networking site also recommends your LinkedIn Connections who have Twitter accounts that you might want to follow.
The Tweets Application makes LinkedIn that much more useful for people looking to network, whether that be for business or personal reasons. Now you can take care of your social networking updates under one network (minus Facebook of course.)
Oneupweb Review: Thumbs Up
Excellent post. I was hoping someone would talk about setting this up. Oh, and I love the SuperNews video.
Thanks Patrick. I think a lot of professionals use LinkedIn and Twitter to network. Now you can do both under one roof, pretty nice.
“LinkedIn combines the Linkyness of Facebook and the Jobyness of Monster.com so you can connect to the best and brightest in your field.” Ha ha.
