Getting the Message Across
My LinkedIn Profile

LinkedIn works because:
• It’s Google-friendly (HTML SEO techniques)
• It’s popular: lots of links = improved Google-ranking
• It works
![Page 16: Managing Your Digital Profile](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060107/5549c9a4b4c905e5048b5b1f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
LinkedIn Notifications
You can receive email notifications
16
You can also change email preferences, update privacy settings, …
On December 11, 2012, you'll be getting the new LinkedIn profile, which has a simplified design, provides deeper insights, and surfaces new ways to connect and build relationships. You'll also be one of the first to preview a new way to showcase rich content on your profile -- like presentations, videos, documents, and more.

UKOLN staff would be expected to make significant use of institutional repository for hosted full-text itemsSurvey in June 2011 showed 43% full text items (only ~7% for Bath)

Opus’s Limitations
“http://opus.bath.ac.uk/view/divisions/cent=5Fukoln.html#group_D - are only current employees indexed? What about browse?”
When staff leave, their ID (email address) is deleted. Content available, but no ‘owner’ information.
Therefore need to manage ‘ownership’ information (e.g. using LinkedIn, …).

Using Twitter (For The Sceptic)
Not a natural Twitterer, but see benefits?• Have an avatar (portrait, animal, hobby)
45
Grow your community (cf the conversations you miss)• Participate in hashtagged events so likeminded
people see you exist• Share links to resources you care about (your
stuff; stuff you’re reading)• Favourite tweets (so others can see you’ve done
so and maybe then follow you)
![Page 46: Managing Your Digital Profile](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060107/5549c9a4b4c905e5048b5b1f/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Understand Twitter Interactions
