🙊Twitter considering disappearing tweets
Threads from Instagram
- A separate messenger app for communicating with your ‘Close friends’ list
- Seperate work from pleasure
- Shows more people using Insta for messaging
- Has WhatsApp style status updates

Instagram create mode
- Templates
- Easier to create stories that aren’t photos or videos
- Encourage more types of content
- Most templates are about engagement polls, questions, quiz, shoutouts + more
- Includes ‘on this day’
https://www.adweek.com/digital/instagram-adds-a-create-mode-to-its-revamped-stories-camera/
Instagram activity tab removed
- Tag showed what photos people you followed liked commented on and who they followed
- Was a great way to find new people to follow

LinkedIn events are back
- Create events
- Link to ticket info
- Public or private
- When you register as attending you can see who else is going and do some pre-networking

New ways to display photo uploads on Facebook
- Choose a template that suits the images you want to share
- Will be great (if added to business pages) for showcasing products
- Just a test for now

Facebook story templates
- As far as I can see these are only available in ads manger
- Maybe not Rolled out fully
- Will make your stories prettier and add a bit of movement using just images
Facebook study shows Facebook story combo ads work
- Instead of splitting add a different creative so Facebook can do the work
- 21% increase in brand lift
- 35% increase in brand outcomes
Twitter considering ephemeral content and selective sharing
- It’s a massive change
- Could It combat trolls and post night out regret?
- An alternative to edit

coffee in a VERY big Mug
Coffee – And just sent the Boss out for a Bacon and Egg Buttie 😉
Nope, not yet
nope not yet ….ima bit insta shy
Good morning, just finished a cuppa tea
I am using Stories, just not the new create thing…
I am on Linked in and I have avoided it because of various factors but I LOVE this new service 🙂
Morning from sunny Derby!
Great! I’m so sick of them looking crap with the auto-layout!
I like that idea re the photos 🙂
Social media nerds have to stick together
Haven’t used ads on stories. Very few seem to look at my stories on Facebook anyway . At least 3 times better on Instagram
I wish I’d known about Word Camp xx
