As we wind down for the holidays, join me in taking a look back at all the amazing new experiences introduced this year. It’s been one of the most exciting years of product innovation at LinkedIn to date and we look forward to raising the bar in 2013. Enjoy!
You might recall that back in May, we made LinkedIn Today, our social news product, even easier to navigate by completely re-imagining the look and feel of the product. This initiative was driven by one of our key design principles to simplify the experience; creating an elegant, delightful and customized experience for news consumption.
In keeping with our continued vision to constantly refine our products with our members’ needs in mind, we are pleased to announce two new features we’ve added to LinkedIn Today.
In today’s Silicon Valley, engineering talent is as sought after by companies as gold was by the first prospectors in the Wild West. Talent is a company’s most important asset, so we decided to use LinkedIn’s data insights to discover which startups are grabbing the attention of San Francisco Bay Area engineers.
Today, we’re excited to unveil LinkedIn’s newest mobile application for the Windows Phone! We know professionals rely on their mobile devices everyday to conduct business and to stay prepared for their work day.
LinkedIn for Windows Phone makes it easy to get on-the-go access to your professional network and all the rich LinkedIn insights to help you be great at what you do. You can find and connect with millions of professionals worldwide, quickly access a real-time update stream with news and information from your professional connections, read timely news impacting your industry, keep up-to-date with your professional groups, search for jobs, and follow your favorite companies’ news.
Our mobile platform is the fastest growing consumer service on LinkedIn. Last August, we completely revamped our iPhone, Android and Mobile Web products. Today, we added the newest member to our mobile family – LinkedIn for iPad.
The new experience re-imagines LinkedIn for the iPad, taking full advantage of Multi-touch and the new Retina display. We aspire to be the place where every professional comes throughout the day. A place where members come to gather important business intelligence and insights to be great at what they do.
