In 2013, a feature called ‘Stories’ was created by Snapchat, and Instagram and Facebook adopted it not long after. People quickly got into the feature and started religiously using it, as it offered a new way to share exciting news or reach out to their followers or friends, without the post being on their profile forever.

Axar.az reports that on LinkedIn’s post about the new feature, the company states that there is an entire generation that is growing up with Stories and is more comfortable sharing content in a quickly vanishing manner, rather than in a sophisticated, well-thought-out post, and most likely LinkedIn wants to be able to appeal to those users as well.

Currently, LinkedIn Stories are only being tested internally with no mention of an exact release date or without a precise announcement of a release. However, it is said they will be tested with a broader audience in the coming months.
