LinkedIn launches LinkedIn for Education

http://pro.gigaom.com/blog/linkedin-launches-linkedin-for-education/

This is about connecting people you at colleges or who you went to college with, rather than being a service for academics like academia.edu or others of that ilk, and it's an incremental change from the existing ways LinkedIn already does pull people who claim the same institutional background together, but an interesting development none the less.
