• LinkedIn™️ break links with X (Twitter) accounts
• Several changes to company pages
• Profile videos are going to disappear
• Profile custom badges surpass creator website links
• 1 billion users...but less than 40% are active!
• Profile verification expands to Brazil and Australia
• More images allowed in image posts
• @mention (tagging) gets worse!
• The customized invitation debacle returns

All that plus the lowdown on my amazing trip.
