Use the Hash tag and don’t send all tweets to LinkedIn

This article from @jorgensundberg really got me thinking about how I use Twitter on LinkedIn.

Integrating Twitter into LinkedIn
I previously had the Twitter app integrated into my account, which sent all Tweets into my status on LinkedIn,

The up shot of this though is that on the status updates on my connections home page on LinkedIn, it would be full of my updates from Twitter.  Some relevant but the conversations I have on Twitter are not relevant to everyone.

Listening to the feedback from of my connections – this could be an annoyance – especially when I was tweeting at a conference or event.

Adjusting the settings on LinkedIn for Twitter

Changing the settings on the application on LinkedIn, so only tweets containing the hash tag #in show up in LinkedIn is the solution.  That way you can be more strategic in what you send into LinkedIn which will be relevant for your contacts.

If anyone else is using the Twitter application on LinkedIn – I suggest you change your behaviour too on which tweets are sent to LinkeIn!
