Plaxo gets LinkedIn follow this blog post

I just set up my Plaxo account to sync with my LinkedIn account.

Some of the advantages to this new sync feature that I see are as follows:

  1. I now get a notification every time one of my LinkedIn contacts changes his job or contact information on LinkedIn.
  2. I can now see who is logged onto their IM account if they have a Yahoo email address or IM account.
  3. All my LinkedIn contacts are now sync'd with into my Outlook contacts through Plaxo.
  4. I can now send unlimited "eCards" and other mailing campaigns out to all my LinkedIn contacts outside the restrictions that may exist on LinkedIn.
  5. I can easily access all my LinkedIn contacts from my mobile phone via the Plaxo  mobile access feature.
I can only hope that is a first step toward having Plaxo integrated into popular ATS applications so that our ATS will keep track of candidate movement automatically.
