LinkedIn Finally Launches Company Follow Button

Today, February 27, 2012, LinkedIn announced on their blog that they have finally launched a “Follow Company” button.  Companies can now add the button to their websites, making it easy for users to follow a company profile straight from the company’s webpage.
