After loads of requests, we’re happy to announce the release of our LinkedIn contacts connector, thanks to their recent API release.

From now on, you can see your contacts’ LinkedIn profiles next to their email addresses, phone numbers, Facebook and Twitter profiles, all in one unified and constantly updated view.

To add your LinkedIn contacts, just go to your Connectors page, click on “Add” next to LinkedIn contacts under the “Add a Connector” section on the right, and authorise your LinkedIn account (via Oauth), or just click here to go directly there.

Then go to your People Book and check out all your contacts with the LinkedIn icon!

Plus you can find all the information you’ve tracked about your Linkedin connections by entering his/her name in the “search everything” field.

This should be particularly useful for those of you who interact with a large business network. You no longer have to browse your address book, hunt through your email folders, or explore the twitter galaxy to check if or how you know this Linkedin person. With Silentale, you’ll know it instantly.

And another bonus is you no longer have a tedious search or synchronization process to consolidate your contacts’ details with their Linkedin profile. Silentale does it automatically for you.

Let us know what you think, and feel free to spread the word.

p.s. we know you also want LinkedIn messages, please lobby LinkedIn to open their API!
