How to Follow Your LinkedIn Contacts on Twitter
If you have taken the time to create and build accounts on both Twitter and LinkedIn, syncing the two together is the most logical way to maximize your networking capacity online. While LinkedIn is business oriented, Twitter's social nature makes it easy to reach a great many people at once -- which is why both websites have their own specific advantages. Website developers understand the need to be able to sync your online accounts and profiles to maximize your contact list, which is why LinkedIn lets you connect with your Twitter profile to find and follow your connections.
