LinkedIn Today Is Live: A Walkthrough

It's nice to see a big web company put out a compelling new product instead of just sitting on its laurels while its waiting for its IPO. Today, LinkedIn did that with LinkedIn Today, its social news product for business people. LinkedIn isn't trying to compete with Twitter, Facebook, or Flipboard here. Instead, it wants to be the Wall Street Journal of social news. How does it do? At first glance, not bad. The top stories I see right now are the LinkedIn Today announcement (duh), Rovio's $42 million funding, Eric Schmidt's Commerce Secretary candidacy, and various social media and SXSW related stories. Many of these you can find on Techmeme, but the real value is when you drill into industry-specific news. Here's a quick walkthrough.
