No More Automatic Tweets on LinkedIn
In 2009, Twitter opened some elements of its API to let external companies import Twitter tweets to their services. LinkedIn was one of the companies to sign up for that, and since then LinkedIn has had many users who automatically import their tweets into the professional social network in lieu of having to post twice on either one. Twitter has retracted this feature of their API, and now LinkedIn users will not be able to auto-update using their Twitter account.
