I just got this message from my private LinkedIn source last night about LinkedIn messaging changes that are coming and wanted to be sure you knew…
Here they are:
– You’ll be able to compose LinkedIn messages easier
With an expanded compose box, you can now have more space to type longer messages.
– Share attachments on-the-go
You can now upload resumes, documents and more from your mobile phone.
– Mention people
Now you can @mention people during your conversations. Easily direct a comment or question at someone you’re chatting with, or even share a LinkedIn profile.
-Easily start and send group messages
Smart suggestions make it easier than ever for you to send group messages to people you may constantly be in touch with, like former colleagues or classmates. Look for the “+” icon to add relevant connections to a group message.
I would love to hear your thoughts below on any of these LinkedIn messaging features as you use them, and please feel free to share with your network as well!
