Gal Gadot is opening up for the first time about the commercial failure of Disney’s Snow White and shuts down reports of a strained relationship with co-star Rachel Zegler. “I really enjoyed filming that movie, I really had fun”, said Gadot during an appearance on Israeli TV show The A Talks, which aired Thursday. “Even working alongside Rachel Zegler. We laughed and we talked, we had fun. I was positive the movie was going to be a huge hit. And then Oct. 7 happened, and what happened all over in different industries, not just Hollywood, there was a lot of pressure put on celebrities, actors, creators to post against Israel. And it happened. I can always explain and try to give people in the world context about the situation and the reality in Israel, and I always do that. But at the end, people make up their own minds. And I was disappointed that the movie was incredibly affected by all of that and that it didn’t do well at the box office. But it is what it is, you win some, you lose some.” Gadot was a guest on the Keshet 12 channel show, the local version of the

LinkedIn is a professional social media platform and a valuable tool for building your personal brand. Many people begin this process after graduating from university. However, because it takes time to establish a strong presence, it's wise to start working on your LinkedIn profile early in your university journey. With that in mind, here are some practical tips to help you create a strong LinkedIn profile as a university student. Think of an interesting headline Your LinkedIn headline appears right under your name at the top of your profile. In up to 220 characters, you can describe what you do, where you study, or your professional interests. This short description also appears next to your name in search results, so it should catch the reader's attention. As a student, a good headline might be "Studying Computer Engineering at XYZ University" or "XYZ University Bachelor of Computer Engineering '27," with "27" showing your graduation year. You can make it stronger by adding your interests or career goals, such as "XYZ University Bachelor of Computer Engineering '27 | Data Science Enthusiast." Although the headline limit is 220 characters, try to keep it under 90 characters so it's fully visible in search results.

In the evolving world of professional networking, LinkedIn has introduced a significant update to its advertising toolkit, allowing brands to sponsor user-generated posts that promote events. This expansion of Thought Leader Ads enables companies to amplify organic content from any LinkedIn member, provided it links to a LinkedIn Event, thereby extending reach and engagement without the need for creating new ad creatives from scratch. This move comes at a time when virtual and hybrid events are central to B2B marketing strategies, offering brands a way to tap into authentic endorsements. By sponsoring these posts, advertisers can drive higher attendance and buzz around webinars, conferences, or networking sessions, leveraging the credibility of individual users rather than corporate voices alone. Expanding Reach Through User Advocacy The mechanics are straightforward: brands search for relevant posts mentioning their events, request permission from the poster, and then promote them via LinkedIn’s ad platform. This not only boosts visibility but also aligns with LinkedIn’s emphasis on thought leadership, where genuine user experiences can resonate more deeply with audiences. According to a report from WeRSM, this feature is designed to give brands “another way to boost event visibility,” highlighting its potential for increasing registrations and interactions. Industry

LinkedIn’s Evolving Advertising Toolkit In the competitive realm of professional networking, LinkedIn has introduced a significant enhancement to its advertising capabilities, allowing brands to sponsor user-generated posts that link directly to events. This move, announced recently, builds on the platform’s Thought Leader Ads, which were first launched to amplify authentic voices within organizations. According to a report from Search Engine Land, this expansion enables advertisers to request permission from members to promote their event-related content, thereby extending reach and fostering genuine engagement. The mechanics are straightforward yet powerful: companies can search for posts by employees or other members that reference a LinkedIn Event and, with approval, turn them into sponsored ads. This not only boosts visibility for upcoming webinars, conferences, or virtual meetups but also leverages the credibility of individual creators. As detailed in LinkedIn’s own marketing solutions page, Thought Leader Ads have traditionally focused on sponsoring organic posts to build brand equity, and this event-centric twist aligns with growing demands for personalized marketing in B2B spaces. Strategic Implications for Marketers Industry experts note that this feature arrives at a pivotal time, as event marketing rebounds post-pandemic.

LinkedIn’s expanding access to its AI-generated job summaries option for recruiters, which helps prospective employers ensure that the relevant key terms and skills are noted in your job ads, better aligning them with LinkedIn’s recommendation systems. The option has been available in some regions for a while, while LinkedIn has also been developing its listings within its Recruiter platform to improve their accuracy. And now, more LinkedIn Company Page managers in more regions will be able to use its AI assistance for their job listings. As explained by LinkedIn, its AI-generated job summaries are currently available “for a subset of LinkedIn members using LinkedIn job posts in the U.S., India, U.K., Canada, and Australia.” Originally, the option was only available in the U.S. and Canada, but now, more regions are gaining access, providing expanded AI assistance in the job listing process. And the expansion into India is significant, because India is now LinkedIn’s third-biggest user market, behind the U.S. and Europe. The platform has seen rapid growth in India, and as such, it’s now becoming a bigger focus for the platform, as it builds new tools and innovations. Which, for LinkedIn, at least for the moment, means more and more

“The web is fragile.” Mark Atli Co-Founder and Technology Director Dreamers of Day .… on why tiny website problems can crush traffic and cause major headaches—and how to avoid them, via LinkedIn. “Small misses can lead to big problems,” Mark Atli writes. He’s seen the carnage firsthand. The co-founder and tech director at Dallas digital product agency Dreamers of Day recently took to LinkedIn to share a highlight reel of site snafus that make a CMO or CEO break out in a cold sweat. A staging site’s NOINDEX tag left on after launch? That crushed SEO and traffic for over a month. Cookie banners that say they reject cookies but actually don’t? Hello, GDPR violations. Wrong canonical tags confusing Google. Broken redirect rules creating infinite loops. Accessibility scores tanking after marketing teams made seemingly innocent CMS edits—with no alerts to warn anyone. A pretty website isn’t enough. Technical missteps can torpedo revenue, trigger legal issues, and tank your brand’s visibility faster than you can say “404 error.” Atli’s advice, especially if your organization manages its site in-house, or if your agency only handles maintenance and reactive tasks: Build layered checks. Automate what you can. Create regular cadence-based
