It’s that time of the week to get your dose of the latest and greatest feature updates on LinkedIn:

Have more to say? You can now easily move your public conversation into a private one by messaging your connections directly from a comment they post on LinkedIn. Or maybe you want to share an  insightful comment with someone? Now you have the ability to share comments via text, email and more. In our app, just tap on the control icon on the right side of any comment to see the message and share options.

Comments

When you can’t quite put the name to the face. Have a meeting coming up with someone you haven’t spoken to for awhile? No worries, LinkedIn can help with that. Simply enable calendar sync so you can get notifications about who you’re meeting with next, and invite them to connect if they’re not already in your network. When your meeting ends, check your notifications for a reminder to follow-up.
