Twitter be lwa up his partnership with LinkedIn and no longer allow tweets to automatically also on the business networking site will appear. Vice versa, users of both services are still updates to sync.

By the cooperation of Twitter and LinkedIn, settled in 2009, allowed users to messages via their accounts were sent to sync. Tweets were automatically posted on LinkedIn is published, and updates on LinkedIn could via Twitter will appear. Twitter started the terms and conditions for use of its api to more stringent handling and as a result is unilaterally an end to the synchronization.

Twitter wants to focus more on the “offer of a kernervaring of Twitter consumption through a consistent set of products and tools,” writes Michael Sippey of Twitter. Already let Twitter know that the developer api does not have to use Twitter functionality to reproduce or mimic, and the tightening would have to do with this. Vice versa changes nothing. LinkedIn users retain the ability messages on the business networking site to be placed automatically as a tweet, publish it, let Ryan Roslansky of LinkedIn know. Compared to Facebook is the guideline for the use of the api is apparently not yet tightened, says TechCrunch, because the ability to use Twitter on Facebook posting continues to be present.
