Chapter 12: Social Networking > LinkedIn
LinkedIn is a popular business-related social networking site. Like Twitter, LinkedIn has an app; it can be accessed at the Amazon Appstore for Android. Unlike Twitter, all of the features on LinkedIn are available on the app.
Login with your e-mail and password (see Figure 12–13, left). If you don't have a LinkedIn account, go to the web site at www.linkedin.com. Once you are logged in, the app's home screen presents several options (see Figure 12–13, right).

The following are LinkedIn's options available from its home screen:
- Updates: LinkedIn is all about the updates. It shows how one contact is connected to another, and so on. The blue dialogue balloon in the corner is for making your own update; the magnifying glass is the search engine; and the Home button returns you to the home screen (see Figure 12–14).
