LinkedIn Gets User Interface Overhaul

3 comments

LinkedIn, the highly popular network for business professionals around the world, has recently relaunched their new user interface.

Brimming with good examples of personalisation, rich user interactions and intuitive navigation touches, I was just about to connect with Anish Kapoor, co-founder of Yuuguu, when I was presented with this jolly old chubby wizard informing me that the site is currently under-going system upgrades…

Hopefully it won’t be offline for too long as there’ll be a fair few million people around the globe anxious to continue using this fantastic web application!

If you haven’t yet registered on LinkedIn then I would strongly suggest giving it a try. You can view

    I agree with you, it is a great website. And it’s great that it is more focused on the professional/career aspect than the social aspect ( such as facebook and others..)
    And i love it’s simple/clean design, as it’s friendly to it’s users.

    Hi Lara, thankyou for your comments.

    Linked-In certainly is a great example of a user interface which manages to present (or provide access to) a significant amount of information in a really user focused way, and as you say for the professionals and career focused individuals of the world its a really powerful networking tool.

    In case you haven’t seen the application, we use PlanHQ for our business planning and strategy, and just in the last week it has had a user interface and user experience overhaul, which is another great example of delivering lots of content using an engaging and intuitive interface.
