Thanks to the new Blog Link feature, you can now read Designing for Humans postings on LinkedIn. You can do this by adding or accessing the Blog Link application directly from your LinkedIn home page (right hand column) - note that the data loading for this feature still seems to be a bit buggy. (You also need to be connected with me on LinkedIn, so it may no be worth your while.)
What's the value of this? While it certainly isn't as efficient as using a regular blog aggregator/reader it's smartly integrated with LinkedIn. For example, it will automatically pull in the lastest blog postings from all of your connections based on the what sites they have listed in their profile, so it's essentially a seamless process. It's also a way to find out about blogs from your connections that you may not know about.
And speaking of connections, the site has had a lot of traffic this week regarding the FieldCREW design research concept, primarily driven via postings on:
- Core77
- Slash Gear
- The Awesomer (certainly a contender for best blog name)
