Here are all of the new social media features for this holiday season…
A weekly newsletter about all things social media by Nuelink
Hey social media enthusiasts! Time for your weekly scoop on the tech and social media scene.
This week, YouTube is unleashing the power of AI in its premium package, treating subscribers to a conversational tool. Now, you can finally ask YouTube any question and even summarize your comment section.
Meanwhile, Meta is teaming up with the e-commerce giant Amazon to turn your Facebook and Instagram accounts into shopping hubs. This partnership comes just in time for the holiday frenzy.
In the wild world of X, Elon Musk is selling dormant Twitter handles for a cool $50k, I mean you who can even afford this?! Is he giving a Tesla away with each purchase? This is the only reasonable explanation.
And, bad news for TikTok creators! The platform is bidding farewell to their $1 billion creator fund on December 16th. Better milk that fund before it's gone.
LinkedIn is also saying goodbye to beloved features. They're bidding adieu to carousel posts, profile videos, and in-image linking. Starting December 14th, it's out with the old and in with... well, something else.
In preparation for the shopping season, Google is introducing a dedicated page for deals on Search, and Chrome will be your virtual coupon fairy, proactively searching for discounts.
That's a wrap for this week's social media extravaganza! Stay tuned for more tech tales, social shenanigans, and exciting features.
You can now catch up on social media news and the latest marketing strategies weekly with the Nuelink team.
