Those who’ve attended my LinkedIn Masterclass – next one is 23 November in Cheltenham – will know that I advise NOT to link Twitter updates with LinkedIn. Last week I discovered this is much harder than it should be. If you’ve installed the Tweet app which as explained in this previous tip is a good idea, then there are 2 settings you need to change. Firstly, the go to Tweets under the More menu heading then select Settings and ensure that ‘Display only tweets that include #in‘ is selected rather than ‘Display all tweets’. Oddly, this isn’t sufficient. You also need to select your name on the top right then Settings then Manage your Twitter settings under the Settings heading in the bottom of the page then ensure that ‘Share only tweets that contain #in (#li also works) in your LinkedIn status’ is selected.
