Top 5 Infographics of the Week: The State of LinkedIn

Just last week, the world's most popular professional network rolled out its brand new publisher platform, starting with a test group of 25,000 users. Right now, if you want access, you will have to fill out a form before it is released to their base of 277 million users. According to LinkedIn, this new publisher platform will give users the ability to share longer posts about their expertise and professional interests, in addition to sharing shorter "status updates". The strategic move by LinkedIn basically means they're providing an amped up blogging tool for people to engage directly with their connections - instead of just being a place to rest your résumé. So far the publisher platform has gotten mixed reviews. In any case, keep reading to see four infographics we've handpicked with great stats on LinkedIn, and one we created ourselves from data provided by Digital Marketing Ramblings.
