Now it will be easy to switch the conversation from text messaging to video. When Microsoft bought LinkedIn, I assumed they would add video calling from Skype (also owned by Microsoft). I must say, I have been waiting for this enhancement to messaging for a long time. You can also completely delete a message if you changed your mind about sending it. So if you send a message and immediately afterward realize there was a typo, you can resolve it easily. For example, it will be easier to select multiple messages at the same time to archive, delete or mark “read.” And there’ll be a simple tool to edit messages. LinkedIn recognized the deficiencies and are adding features that will make your messaging life a lot easier. There’s just too much content and no good tool for organizing it. It's been an additional inbox to deal with, and it hasn’t been easy to engage with it. If you have a lot of connections and followers like I do, messaging has been pretty challenging to manage. Members can add stickers to their stories, enhancing the local spin.

What are you working on? How do you recharge on your day off? Two unique tools accompany LinkedIn stories: Stories will roll out in the US and Canada first, then to other regions. This creates the feeling that they don’t need to be perfect-like a LinkedIn article you write, for example-making them a less intimidating and more authentic way of expressing yourself and building your genuine personal brand. The stories you create will expires 24 hours after you post them. Stories, they note, are a more casual way of sharing photos, videos and messages.
