LinkedIn has added the “sections” feature to the LinkedIn profile for even more customization.  Your LinkedIn profile is your resume on the web and an important part in you online identity.  With the section feature, you can personalize your profile even more.  For example, an author can showcase his/her publications, a Virtual Assistant can showcase his/her certifications and skills, you can showcase the different languages you are speaking and your patents.  Here is a list of sections you can add to your profile:

Sections:

–          Patents

–          Publications

–          Skills

–          Certifications

–          Languages

But not enough, you can add different applications as well.  You can add everything from a Word document to events to your portfolio.  Here is a list of possible applications:

Applications:

–          Blog Link

–          Box.net Files (PPT, Word documents, Excel Spreadsheets)
