I guess my thing with LinkedIn is that there's just no reason to use the feed. It's still a place to connect with people I've worked with and keep up with what they've been doing. It's incredibly useful for that. I really don't find the feed to be either a boon or a hindrance in that use case. I know it's there, I know it annoys some people, but it's just irrelevant to me.

The LinkedIn feed would actually be very useful if it only showed my contact's milestones such as job updates, their own product/service launches and events like conferences or conventions that involve them.

Of course, such a feed would take me 2 minutes per week to read through so that wouldn't be good for the business.

For some reason I kept opening it up and the feed would irritate me. This has fixed it:
