Don’t Be LinkedOut of Your LinkedIn

, a small company which enjoyed recently a shooting appraisal up over the $2 billion mark, has made its very first acquisition by buying the recommendation service mSpoke for a price still undisclosed.
 
As the company looks to keep its users more entertained and engaged on their site, this latest move is something of a technology investment.
 
CEO of LinkedIn, Jeff Weiner said:
 

“mSpoke and LinkedIn’s shared focus on generating relevant content make this acquisition a natural fit for us. We’re actively investing in solutions that help deliver valuable professional insights to LinkedIn members.”
 

But if you were getting bored with LinkedIn or perhaps wondering why you had the darn thing in the first place, be informed that the site has renovated recently or added to the social features which it offers.
 
For example, the revamping of its Groups with “Likes,” “Follows” and “Discussions” options.
 
So the online resume service is not so useless after all – or anyway, it does not want to be.
 
The social site has been adding more Facebook and Twitter-like features – starting with a feed, an application which if added takes up most of the room on a user’s homepage; and more recently with a new link sharing feature to engage the faithful LinkedIn-inians and get more information sharing and Web and social pumping through the electric site.
