So LinkedIn is not discontinuing this feature, but it's weakening it. Note: if you don't use gmail, don't worry about this :)
I guess it was inevitable that LinkedIn would put up high walls around Rapportive's functionality, and cut off other systems. Kind of a play from the 1990's, imo.

LinkedIn is apparently going to retire LinkedIn Events.
I say GOOD RIDDANCE.

HireSignals is a third party tool that I can't imagine LinkedIn allowing to continue... even though they should. Check out this video on how it works. More here.
In short, this tool allows YOU (the job seeker) to say whether you are actively pursuing a new job, or if you don't ...

I have stayed away from writing about acquisitions that LinkedIn does because of a few reasons. Either they didn't make too much sense, or because the acquisition didn't seem to add much/any value to the average user, or because I wanted to focus mostly on using LinkedIn, not so much ...

Check out what I see now where I once saw my video:

Up until this week I've had four Powerpoint presenations on my LinkedIn Profile, via the Slideshare Application.
NOTE: all of the links below take you to a LinkedIn Profile. To see what I'm talking about you have to click the button that says "View Full Profile."

LinkedIn Applications - which ones do you load, which ones do you ignore?
I've not been a big fan of the Amazon Reading List application, in general. I think people generally put... well, what they are reading. This may not be on-brand, and essentially becomes NOISE on an already-too-busy LinkedIn Profile.
