Deleting a Connection – LinkedIn

Let’s face it, sometimes social media connections aren’t forever.  Life changes and at times we would prefer not to let someone we are no longer “connected” to be privy to our information.

When this happens it’s easy enough to go into the social media sites and disconnect!  It does take some looking around though.  Connecting tends to be so much easier than disconnecting.

Here’s a short tutorial on how to block a connection in LinkedIn.

Navigate via “Contact”  Tab on the bar, when the LinkedIn Contact page opens there is a Tab names “Remove Connections” to the far right.


On the “Remove Connections” page a pick box will pop up showing all your connections.  At this point “check” the box of the connection to be removed.  Click on “Remove Connections”

You are done!

TrendsSpotting's 2010 Social Media Influencers

As we end yet another interesting year of experiencing social media it is fun to review the predictions of others on what the future will bring.  I found this excellent SlideShare featuring Twitter-style micro-blogging predictions.
View more documents from Taly Weiss.

I believe most of them to be true, particularly the points about “Advertising infiltrating social sites, souring the experience for many.”  (think broadcasting listings on Twitter. DUH!)

And,

“Many just entering the content marketing arena will do so with the old broadcast mentality…they will shout…and turn off their potential audience.”

What’s next?

“We’re going to see an explosion of things that use location.”  OF course this seems only natural. iPhones (and others) have become an appendage.

We don’t leave home without them.
