Make LinkedIn As Fun As Twitter

Problem

  • Worlds colliding
  • Annoyance of cross posting and UX
  • Most content are boring
  • Takes itself too seriously

Upsides

  • Crazy algos
  • Twitter madness diversification
  • If there’s enough of us we can make it fun, culture-wise

Profile revamp - match what one does on Twitter

  • Delete old titles, detailed job experiences, stuff that don’t matter no mo’
  • Need real face though. At least spice up the profile pic to be more fun, AI avatars?
  • Use “Projects” to feature projects? But no pics allowed, kinda lame
  • Hide old sections

Populate with cool people

  • Use Shield Analytics to figure out who is on your list
  • Find Twitter friends on LinkedIn
  • Find LinkedIn friends on Twitter
  • Join LinkedIn Group so we can find each other
    • Create linkedin group
  • Linkedin people who are worth following (not lame)
    • Susan Lee

Fun things to do

  • LinkedIn Live
  • Cross-post newsletter (reuse longform content)
