Once you have SlideShare Presentations up and running, you can access it from your LinkedIn profile. We’ve incorporated the ability to upload, share, and discuss documents on LinkedIn. A basic account is free, while prices for other versions start at 19 per month. Over the last eight years, the SlideShare team, product, and community has helped shape the content experience on LinkedIn. LinkedIn acquired SlideShare in May 2012 at a time when it was becoming clear that professionals were using LinkedIn for more than making professional connections. Meanwhile, a statement from LinkedIn Vice President of Engineering Chris Pruett highlighted the work that the company has done on SlideShare since the acquisition: Application Lifecycle Management Integration Low-Code Development No-Code Development Mobile App Development Test. We’re in a good position make SlideShare really successful.”

“We have a lot of experience with a product like this, both the technology stack and with users uploading content. “Nothing will change in the initial months,” Adler said. He added that SlideShare will continue to operate as a standalone service, separate from Scribd, and that he’s hopeful it will continue to be well-integrated with LinkedIn. Scribd isn’t taking on any new employees as part of the deal instead, its existing team is taking responsibility for SlideShare’s operation. The deal, Adler said, is fundamentally about tapping into SlideShare’s “content and audience,” though he said there may be aspects of the service’s technology that Scribd could incorporate as well. So when Microsoft and LinkedIn approached Scribd about acquiring SlideShare, Adler saw an opportunity to expand the document side of the product dramatically, incorporating SlideShare’s content library of 40 million presentations and its audience of 100 million unique monthly visitors.
