Tips
- The transfer will only give you your first name, last name and email address. The existing email address is the email address your contact uses on linkedin, but for most contacts the email address may have been changed.
- Languages like Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew or others may not work, because linkedin doesn't support these language features.
- You can share and recommend the group to your friends or colleagues by clicking the “Forward this group” link at the top right of the group page.
Warning
- You cannot update your LinkedIn status using twitter messages containing '@replies'.
- Leaving a group will make you lose all features of the group such as communicating with group members directly. You can try to re-enter the group at any time as long as the group owner has not removed you.
