The VP of Marketing at LinkedIn, Patrick Crane, was the guest of the Connections Show this week (with Stan Relihan).

Here's what Patrick Crane had to say about what's coming in the near future:

"Much Better Group Capability
Create more of a private discussion area where you can connect with like minded people that you may or may not know and uncover new opportunities, get fresh insights, [etc.] . . . "

"Other Applications Coming up soon that allow you to present more of yourself
More of your portfolio / more of your work"

"More and more intel on what is going on in their professional networks
Status feature letting people know what you’re working on"
