We will shortly be releasing a new version of CrunchBase
, the company and people database wiki that you often see linked to here on TechCrunch.
In the meantime, though, we’ve added a few new features to the product, including integration with LinkedIn via their API. You can now click a button and see if you are linked to any of the employees at any particular startup. The image to the left shows Google, but you may be surprised to find a connection to someone at even the smaller new companies we cover. The integration is identical to what Business Week announced last December.
More news from CrunchBase coming soon. And if you haven’t put in your own bio and picture yet, or information about your startup, please add it. We’re now tracking 4,460 startups and over 10,000 people.
