Despite the contant invitations from your aunt, LinkedIn is set up to be a social network for business contacts, keeping you in touch with the people you’ve worked with over the years. As useful of a service as it can be for maintaining business contacts, its abysmal iPhone app has been a disappointment.

LinkedIn has href="http://venturebeat.com/2011/08/16/linkedin-mobile-app/">just released an update for their app, and completely overhauled its look and feel. The new redesign is far more modern, and works perfectly with the limited screenspace of a mobile device.

It’s not just the iOS version of the LinkedIn app that’s gotten a facelift. The mobile web version and Android editions have both been spruced up too.

This is almost enough to actually make me use LinkedIn more than once a year!
