If you are asking what is LinkedIn or have been with LinkedIn for awhile this video/blog is for you.

Is Twitter advertising coming?
Have you logged into Twitter recently? If you login today you will notice a new box with a link to widgets/twitter search. It even gives you a definition of what they are if you don’t already know. I have a feeling that this is just a test and pretty soon we will see “Advertise Here” links. My only wish is that they do not start having pop-ups. I personally am not a fan of popups.
