LinkedIn has acquired a company called Indextank, which specialises in real time search technology. No financials on the deal have been disclosed however this is no doubt a strategic move to improve the companies products, services and search capabilities.

What does this tell us about LinkedIn’s future strategy? They may be looking to build products or plugins which more advanced access to search the LinkedIn system and platform.

Nothing has been posted yet on the LinkedIn Blog, but we will keep an eye out for more details.
