How to Link Facebook and Twitter With LinkedIn

Keeping in touch is easier and faster with technology.

As technology advances, social media networking is becoming more popular. Three of the largest social networking websites are Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter. Facebook is more geared towards casual interaction among friends, allowing you to share personal information, comment on friends' posts, instant message and communicate with friends on a personal level. LinkedIn caters to the needs of individuals and organizations who would like to have and build relations on the business level. Twitter is used for micro-blogging, allowing you to send out short messages, called "Tweets."
