Share, recommend, and discuss news articles within LinkedIn groups

FB58C7AB-0A80-471F-9412-80842233B9EE.jpgThis week Linkedin will be offering some new features for groups.

This week, we’re providing you with brand new tools to make your group even more valuable to your members: news sharing and discussion features.

This Friday users will be able to share, recommend, and discuss news articles within LinkedIn groups. Any member of a group will be able to submit an article for reading and discussion.

We have built in several controls for the group manager:

  • Managers (as well as submitters) are able to delete any article that has been submitted or is being discussed.
  • Managers (as well as authors) are able to delete any comment within a discussion.
  • Managers are able to turn the news sharing and discussion features off entirely within the management tab.
  • This would be a great way for the Blog For Profit, Blog Marketing Group to share articles and even blog post from other bloggers. If you are not a member of the group, you can go here to join. And if you are a member, let the sharing begin.

    Also don’t forget to subscribe to the Blog For Profit Newsletter. We include information in the newsletter we don’t feature here on the blog.
