oodle.com to Link with LinkedIn
January 8, 2010 by Alice Allan
oodle.com, a classifieds website that includes job listings amongst its categories, has just moved to make its listings more tied in to social networks.
As oodle.com CEO Craig Donato explains, oodle.com listings can now be published to social streams on Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter, displaying them to friends and followers.
Those looking for items on oodle.com will also be able to publish listings to their social networks, allowing them to ask their network for advice. “For instance, when viewing a job listing — ‘anyone know someone that works here?’” Donato writes.
It seems highlighting the website’s job listings is part of Donato’s strategy with these new social functions, as LinkedIn is on the list for future integration.
“In the coming weeks, you’ll see more happening here,” Donato says. “In addition to Facebook, Twitter and MySpace we’ll enable users to connect to their accounts on LinkedIn, eBay, trulia.com and zillow.com.”
The US-based oodle.com links to country-specific versions for the UK, Canada, India, and Ireland.
