Scraping Twitter and LinkedIn info in R
# Get a person's name, location, summary, # of connections, and skills & endorsements from LinkedIn
# URL of the LinkedIn page
user_url <- "https://www.linkedin.com/in/daattali"
# since the information isn't available without being logged in, the web
# scraper needs to log in. Provide your LinkedIn user/pw here (this isn't stored
# anywhere as you can see, it's just used to log in during the scrape session)
username <- "yourusername"
password <- "yourpassword"
