LinkedIn works with Twitter, and vice versa
9 Nov 2009 | 9:00 pmToday we’re announcing a partnership between LinkedIn and Twitter – and new features that we think are going to make both Twitter and LinkedIn more powerful for you. The idea is simple: When you set your status on LinkedIn you can now tweet it as well, amplifying it to your followers and real-time search services like Twitter Search and Bing. And when you tweet, you can send that message to your LinkedIn connections as well, from any Twitter service or tool. Why?

Closed Twitter-like or Facebook-like enterprise applications will not fully engage a company's employees. In the long-run those closed social networks will be underutilized and abandoned. Why would you agree or disagree with this statement?
20 Nov 2009 | 9:48 amMany companies believe that if they develop an internal/closed social network they will reap the benefits of the crowd. However, only a small percentage of mass social media users are creators and critics. Therefore, without the scale of Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter, a company is not likely to get the participation they need to solve their organizational issues. I realize that some of you may have implemented closed social networks. If you feel comfortable, please share you experience - succ ... -

Yes there are a lot of mislead people throwing strange ideas out there, but I've also seen many good inventions be overlooked because of closed minded statements like "energy can't be created". But I like to think they aren't creating energy, but harnessing forces we aren't used to acknowledging. So do you think from that context, that over-unity devices are possible? -

18 Nov 2009 | 4:53 amLast week I posted about LinkedIn & Twitter and got a very interesting comment from Charlie PA TPK: I have to wonder about the direction LinkedIn is heading with these enhancements.

When LinkedIn added photos, my initial thought was ‘Gee, just like MySpace and Facebook’. Now I see Twitter hooks.
