To start a discussion in a group, just copy the link to your blog post into the link area at the bottom of the group discussion form. LinkedIn will pull the basics (title, intro, image) from your blog--and let you edit the words a bit. The link option doesn't appear until you start typing in the top box of the discussion form. It doesn't matter than you have your blog connected to LinkedIn. There's no way to transfer something from your profile into the group discussion. I think my answer is going to surprise you, Michael.
