Since Microsoft purchased LinkedIn portal in 2016, you can see significant changes on the portal that are slowly trying to reshape LinkedIn to social networking website instead of being a place typically intended for business contacts. A new function will be tested on the portal soon. This will be Stories option, which will work on the portal in a similar way as the options with the same name in Snapchat and Instagram.

According to Microsoft, introduction of Stories to LinkedIn can facilitate communication during business meetings. Thanks to the new function, it will be easier to give tips to other employees and it will allow to publish information in a much faster way than before. For now, Stories option on LinkedIn is undergoing closed testing and at the moment we do not know specific date when we can expect the introduction of Stories officially on the website.
