LinkedIn Tip:  Turn off your broadcast activity before changing your

[Tip]   Before you start changing your profile and go back and forth to add some punctuation error or modify, you need to turn off your broadcast activity. You would hate to broadcast to everyone every time you decide to change one little detail.
1.  Go to LinkedIn and click on "settings" on the dropdown underneath your name. This is on the top right hand side of the screen.
2.  You may be prompted to enter your password again, but you will be directed to the settings page.
3.  On the bottom, you will see 4 tabs starting with "Profile", look for "Turn on/off your activity broadcast", click on it.
4.  A window will pop up asking you to check/uncheck the box.
5.  If you are looking to turn off a broadcast about each simple change to your profile, be sure to uncheck the box.
