Linkedin is a fantastic tool but for all it’s networking potential and the huge resource it is for employers and candidates alike the one fault that it has in my opinion is that it doesn’t allow you to add very much rich content like video. Adding video to Linkedin might not be relevant to everybody but for companies with video content like ourselves it can really be the difference in having your profile noticed or not. The uses for this trick are only limited by your imagination and I can see people using it to pitch for busines, applying for jobs or even doing video demos to show off their knowledge. The video could even be of a product you sell or simply a demonstration of the website or services you offer.

That was really helpful and useful. It couldn’t have come at a better time as I am currently preparing to make my own video as a promotion tool and an introduction to my website that’s going to be launched very soon hopefully. I’m sure that after my connections see an interesting video of the website, they’d be more likely to visit it!
Thanks for sharing.

Great idea to use Google docs to embed video in your LinkedIn profile. Another way that you can add a video would be to use Slideshare.net and add that application to your LinkedIn profile.
Thanks!! Great video. Very good and simple explanation. I was able to post a video on my LinkedIn profile minutes after watching it! I am very happy to have found you on the Web!
