LinkedIn is already the preferred social media platform by professionals to get in touch with other professionals. With the new features that the site is implementing, users will have access to suggestions regarding training courses and they will also be getting a Facebook-style newsfeeds feature, which allows them to keep track of any content posted by their contacts. Finally, LinkedIn will also be adding chatbots, which can work as a virtual secretary for now.
According to PC World, the training course suggestion feature that LinkedIn will be implementing is derived from the Lynda.com library. Containing over 9,000 online courses to choose from, the addition certainly comes through in terms of giving professional users with plenty of options. Adding the library is only appropriate since it did cost LinkedIn $1.5 billion to acquire and it’s about time too since they got it more than a year ago.
With regards to the newsfeeds, anyone who has ever used Facebook in the last year or so would be familiar with the new feature that LinkedIn is adding. However, instead of baby pictures and an endless stream of inspirational quotes, users will instead be treated to content more befitting professionals. Announcements, articles, headlines, and opinion pieces will be the main features with what the social network calls the “Interest Feed.”
Then there's the new chat bots feature that seems to be the next big thing among tech giants, largely due to the revenue potential of implementing such a system. As CBS News reports, some of the companies that are currently racing to be the first to really take advantage of chat bots include Twitter and Facebook. Even LinkedIn’s new owner, Microsoft, is also getting in on the action.
As for what chatbots will mean for users, they can be used to find appropriate dates for meetings and scheduling appointments for the moment; quite befitting of a busy professional lifestyle. The bots can even suggest potential places to meet, making them halfway decent secretaries.
