How to Add Your Twitter Tweets to LinkedIn Status Profile

http://twitter.com/trafficisgold Adding your Tweets to your Linkedin profile is easy to do. You no longer need third party applications to connect these two powerful social media sites.

This video will show you step by step, how to add your Tweet stream to your Linkedin profile status update.
One word of caution, if you tweet a lot you should select the option that only shows tweets that have the following #in tag (hash tag) in the tweet. Otherwise you run the risk of annoying people with your constant updates. I see this time and time again on Facebook. However facebook has a great hide feature. So if people tweet too much I just hide them.

Hope that Helps!

    Hi Josh,
    Thanks for sharing this tutorial. I followed all these steps, but unfortunately my tweets aren't getting updated on Linkedin, even though my Twitter settings are saved! I wonder what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks for the comment. This is your profile, correct: http://www.linkedin.com/in/radhikaramachandran

    I see your twitter account is showing on your Linkedin profile. Did you select to only show your tweets on your LI profile when you include the following hastag #in? If so, make sure the tweet you want to show up on your Linkedin profile contains the #in hastag.

    If this is not the issue, please let me know.

    Josh

    Hi Josh,

    Thanks for your email response. I appreciate your review of my profile.

    Yes, my Twitter & Linkedin a/c's seem to be connected….my Linkedin profile
    shows my Twitter account and vice versa. But somehow, my network status
    updates seems to be functioning only one-way! That is my updates from
    Linkedin show on my Twitter but not the other way around.

    I have tried using both the #in and #li hastags while updating Twitter, but
    they don't trickle down to Linkedin. My Twitter settings in
    Linkedin are visible to anyone and I have opted to share tweets that contain
    #in.

    I am at a loss……what seems to be the problem?

    Thanks for your help in advance!
