MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Feb. 25 (UPI) -- LinkedIn launched its first official website in China, which will be in simplified Chinese, making it the only American social network with a sizable presence in the country.
LinkedIn already has around four million registered users from 80,000 companies on its English language website. But the professional social network hopes to attract the nearly 140 million professionals in China and at the same time strike a truce with Chinese sensors, as LinkedIn users are not likely to discuss politics or organize anti-government protests.
