Thanks for your quick response. However, after installing the gem locally, when I do [require 'linkedin'], it will give me this error:MissingSourceFile in PublicController#job_detail, no such file to load -- linkedinThanks a lot.

did you actually installed that gem with a `rake install` command or with `gem install ./pkg/linkedin-0.1.8.gem` ?did you restarted your app after adding a `require 'linkedin'` ? did you put a `config.gem 'linkedin'` in your config/environment.rb ?
