River of LinkedIn videos (Product, Engineering, Users, and more)

Today, we started a new vlog series on the blog to showcase examples of LinkedIn users and highlight ways they use LinkedIn in their professional life. I thought this may be a good time to stop and take a quick look at the increasing number of vlog posts we've published in the past few months. To give you an overview, most of our videos are categorized by

1. Feature announcements (Product, Engineering and Design perspectives)
2. Success Stories
3. Events we attend or host

Here's a Top 3 video countdown from all the videos we've published in the past few months on the LinkedIn blog.

#3. LinkedIn Mobile demo for the iPhone

This marked the first wave of video based demos we did around feature announcements. We started with Jerry Luk (Principal Engineer, LinkedIn Mobile) walk us through a demo of LinkedIn Mobile on the iPhone.

#2. LinkedIn's redesigned homepage demo

Besides giving us a fantastic blooper reel, Elliot Shmukler (Product Manager) gave us a simple demonstration of some of the key features of LinkedIn's recently redesigned homepage.

#1. LinkedIn Q&A Event - Fake Steve Jobs on playing the Real Steve Jobs

With an audience of over 350 packing into the Computer History Museum, it was time to get into the secret life of Forbes' Senior Editor Dan Lyons (author of the "Fake Steve Jobs" blog). The sparks flew when we got Guy Kawasaki, former chief evangelist at Apple, to interview him.

Moving forward:

* Watch some, learn some more: We'll incorporate a video demo of key features that the users talk about in in future vlogs. You currently see these tips and tricks as screenshots in the blog post itself (see the most recent user vlog post here).

* Less is more: We'll also like to reduce the length of the videos themselves from an average of 5 minutes to under 3 minutes, because we know you have to get back to more important work.

Any other suggestions? Feel free to leave a comment on the blog post.
