Well, in my spur of writing nice, simple libraries to interface Python, OAuth, and a REST API from a certain service. LinkedIn was my last that I tackled. Not to say that there won’t be more to come… 
I had to think of a name other than ‘python-linkedin’ because it was already taken, so just “linkedin” seem to be fine. 
This library interfaces LinkedIn JSON responses from the REST API with Python.
