This is gonna be my first try at Storify, an effective and super-easy way to weave a cohesive story around different social media genres: blogs, tweets, flickr, youtube, etc.

As I'd said yesterday, this is a great way for me to share the social media moments on stuff that I work on, given how most of those involve articles, blog posts, tweets, etc.

This is of course, an experiment, since I'm not sure how well the auto-publish from Storify to Wordpress works. I've also noticed that the drafting process on Storify is broken since it doesn't auto-save well and you're likely to lose portions of content if you choose not to publish it rightaway.

But, I digress... On to today's launch: LinkedIn's Android App.

The (Professional) Droid has landed...

Chad Whitney, my colleague at LinkedIn blogged about the launch of the LinkedIn's Android app earlier today. This is the 2nd consecutive product launch from the House of Adam Nash, who blogged yesterday about the launch of our development platform.

Chad's great at coming up with short, succinct posts that really get to the point and also gives the reader exactly what they're looking for in terms of links, downloads, etc., without them having to read through reams of text.

So, here's his post that announced the availability earlier this morning on the LinkedIn Blog.

Blog highlights: So you don't have to read through them all...

As I'd mentioned earlier, one of the perks of my job is sharing this news with the rest of the world. Here are reactions from key tech blogs:

Of course, there were other mobile blogs that also that picked up on the above posts or did their own analysis of the app. Check them out from the related Techmeme thread below.

User reactions: From finally to oh yae...  

And, finally, I thought it'd be great to pull some of the key reactions.

I find that Storify makes it super-easy to pull in relevant tweets. Tip: favorite the tweets you want to pull into your story and then find them on your twitter tab within storify. Again, super-easy and auto-formatted.

And, at the end of the day, there's tremendous value in the ability for professionals to be able to stay connected, when on the move.

This app really makes that a reality for Android users and as the above tweets indicate, this is the LinkedIn app they've all been waiting for.

Signing off... And, for those of you Android users. Download the app from the Android marketplace. Embed below.
