Hooking up with LinkedIn

 

 The Gleanr team is aiming toward a custom LinkedIn app, but meanwhile it's easy to automatically feed your LinkedIn network updates and your professional networks with information you've discovered or created, and they should know about.  

SET-UP

  1. If you haven't already done so, link Gleanr with your Twitter account using in the Connections area of your Personal Profile (see the How To for this).
  2. Go to "Home" and click on the Settings icon (gear symbol) of the channel you'll use to update your Facebook status. Go to Broadcast Settings and click "Add myself to broadcast list" to activate your Twitter account on this channel.  Add the hash tag "in" to this setting.
  3. Open your LinkedIn account and go "Settings" and then "Twitter Settings" hook up your Twitter account to your LinkedIn network status feed.

You're done!  Now whenever you discover or think up something that's important to your LinkedIn connections, just click to glean it!   The active Gleanr link within LinkedIn will bring them back to full contents of your glean and your channel.
