Are you sure you want to Yes No

LinkedIn gives you the opportunity to add up to 3 websites of your choice and defaults to six options. If you want to be more creative than the using the default choose other and start typing in the full URL of each website. Make sure to include the http:// in the address to make sure that the links work correctly.
Applications are a new feature of LinkedIn and many are being added as time goes on.

Some of the applications I have used are:
www.WordPress.com – Any time I write a new entry to my WordPress blog the entry title and first few lines appear in my LinkedIn profile. This way readers can click on the link and go directly to the blog to read the rest of the entry and start more dialogue there.
www.Box.net – Add PDF files, Microsoft Word documents, Excel files, and pictures to your Box.net profile and they will automatically appear in your LinkedIn profile if you have added the application.
www.SlideShare.Net – Professional Microsoft PowerPoint presentations can be added to your LinkedIn profile using SlideShare. Add the application and anytime you upload to Slideshare it will appear in LinkedIn automatically.
www.Amazon.com – Share your favorite books with others by creating an account at www.Amazon.com, add the application to LinkedIn, and add books that you have read, want to read, or can recommend to others.
Status updates are a great tool to let others know what you are doing and receive comments from your friends. This can also be called microblogging on Facebook. Post text that will jump off the page and invite others to comment on what you are doing at the moment or feedback from a question you have asked. This text is limited to less than 140 characters and may contain both personal and professional updates. Sometimes you will want to share a website or blog post that has a long string of numbers and characters.

Here are some examples of status updates:
I just taught a class in Orlando, Florida last week.
To see the recap of the Orlando, Florida seminar on Marketing see http://tinyurl.com/558uvx
I am writing a course entailed “Blogging for Beginners”
Did you ever read the book “Four Hour Work Week”? If you did what did you think?
Is anyone going to the Midyear Conference in Washington D.C. in 2009?

The parody of making friends on online communities has become a comical debate. If you know them, like them, and trust them than of course you should be friends or join their network. What about the others who may not know so well? Here are a tests to run on these people to determine whether they will make the final cut.
Friends of friends. Introductions from friends definitely speed of the process online as they do in person. In MySpace, LinkedIn, and Facebook you can see who your friends’ friends are and ask them to join your network. Purely the association of a friend can say this person matches similar interest, hobbies and business activites.
Work in the same industry. You may be able to tell their job by their picture or description that is attached to the profile. If you are looking to grow your network of associated professionals than sure why not add them as friends. Every time you become a friend of someone it is like slapping a business card on their profile. Friends of your friend can see your entire resume, area of expertise, and niche that you serve. The worst that can happen is they say no. Again this is similar to real life situations.
Have similar interests. Think of your favorite things to do. Is is walking in the park, playing golf, or snowboarding in the mountains. People like to share their experiences on their profiles with pictures, videos, or statements that express their opinion on the subject. Add friends that share similar experiences so that you can learn from them as you share what you know.
Send them a private message. If you just sent a generic message that says, “Hi, _____ wants to be your friend on Facebook”, or “Hi, ____ would like you to join their network on LinkedIn”, it has no personal touch and will reduce the likelihood of them adding you to their network. Take a few seconds to introduce yourself or create a templated message that differs from the standard greeting.
Photos in Facebook are a great way to share live events that happen in your life.

Here some ways you can use photos:
Upload a professional picture to your main profile. This picture will now appear with every comment you make, note that you write someone else, and on every page within your own profile.
Post photos of live events
Post photos of happy clients
Tag photos by clicking on the link, drawing a rectangle around the person, and the type name of the person that appears in each of the pictures. Next, the person who was tagged in the photo will receive a notification, and appear in both status updates and an item will be posted to both walls.

Another way to post photos to your profile is using Flickr which we will cover in a future discussion.

Instructors can use this to:
Upload pictures of their classes
Upload pictures of their students
Upload pictures of examples used in class
Like pictures, videos can be uploaded and tagged. They show more emotion, animation, and expression than pictures or text. Each video has its own title, description and can be embedded into other websites.

Here are some ideas for instructors to use videos:
Produce video testimonials for students that attend classes
Record video a demonstration of your website
Produce a video explanation of the current market
Record a live session from one of your classes.

Videos from www.YouTube.com can also be posted to Facebook in the status updates
