Linkedin Blog

The LinkedIn Intelligent Application Platform is all about surfacing LinkedIn where you need and want it most. Writing or reading an email? LinkedIn should be there, providing context between you and your contacts.

Xobni is an ideal remedy to the pursuit of context — and now with Xobni’s LinkedIn integration, you can find out everything you need to know about a contact before hitting that Send button: The company they work for, their profile picture, and the rich metadata about your history with them.

We live in a global economy and now more than ever, collaborating across borders is a reality for professionals all over the world. Whether we are looking for a trusted partner or understanding how to approach a potential client, we all must reach beyond our national frontiers and seek knowledge through people we know and trust.

So I am happy to announce that starting today, we are extending the benefits of LinkedIn to all the Spanish speakers of the world.

We’re glad to announce the launch of our strategic relationship with NYTimes.com that will allow readers to receive targeted news articles based on their unique attributes. In addition, they’ll also be able to share and discuss articles they read on NYTimes.com with other LinkedIn members in their network.

Below is a quick overview of the two features and how you can make use of them, both on LinkedIn and on the NYTimes.com site (NYT):

I have been working for LinkedIn for the summer. It has been a fantastic experience throughout, but today, it definitely reached a high point when I saw my sports hero and professional passion come together.

I’ve been a Yao Ming fan for the past ten years. One thing I can say is that while most athletes are self-promoting, Yao is all about others in need. Today, he is going high tech on LinkedIn.
