LinkedIn Goes Mobile

For a service that’s primarily used by Crackberry-addicted professionals, it sure did take LinkedIn a long time to launch a mobile version, but one has finally arrived. The multilanguage WAP version of LinkedIn can be found by going to m.linkedin.com on your phone’s mobile browser. This scaled down version offers search, the ability to view your profile, and the ability to view your contacts and updates. From your phone you can invite other members and forward job postings. Still in the works is the ability to reply to job postings or update your own profile.

Oh and by the way, despite all the blogs covering this new mobile site with pictures of how great it looks on a iPhone, let’s get real - corporate users don’t use iPhones for business (their IT Net Admins forbid it!), it’s more likely that the way most users will see looks more like the image here (borrowed from Webware), kudos to them for a realistic screenshot.
