TikTok Launches AI-Powered Photo-to-Video Tool!

A weekly newsletter about all things social media by Nuelink

Welcome back to the Nuesletter! Here’s your weekly social media scoop:

🐦 X Timeline & Notification Glitches: Many X (formerly Twitter) users faced timeline and notification bugs across web and mobile. The issue was server-side, so reinstalling or switching browsers didn’t help. While X hasn’t commented yet, some users saw partial fixes a day later.

🔗 Threads Boosts Link Sharing: Threads now lets creators add up to five personal links in their bios! Plus, new insights show how many people click on links in posts and profiles, a great way for creators to track engagement with their communities.

🎬 Meta’s Edits App Gets a Creator Upgrade: Meta updated its Edits app with features like beat markers that sync clips to music. Competing with apps like CapCut, it offers AI effects, green screen, and Instagram integration for smooth content creation across Meta’s platforms.

🤖 TikTok Launches AI Alive: TikTok’s new AI Alive tool turns photos into animated short videos in Stories. Upload a photo, add a prompt, and watch AI create dynamic effects like moving clouds or waves. Safety checks and AI content labels keep things transparent, putting TikTok ahead of Instagram and Snapchat in AI video.

📌 Pinterest Apologizes for Account Suspensions: After a recent moderation glitch, Pinterest mistakenly deactivated many accounts. The platform apologized and said suspensions were due to unspecified community guideline violations, frustrating many users caught in the wave.

@danmeetsworldatlIt was shocking to find out that they make so little. Granted, it’s still a livable wage in their home countries, but it’s still shocking. And a of cruise ships are not registered in USA, so they don’t have to follow US labor laws. It makes me appreciate the work these workers do even more. #cruisetok #cruiseship #carnivalcruise #royalcaribbean #norweigancruise #disneycruise #cruiseshipcrew #cruiseshiplife

Our Two Cents on Social Media Marketing 🧙‍♂️

• Your first line needs to grab attention instantly. Whether it’s surprising, thought-provoking, or controversial, it should make people stop scrolling and want to read more. This sets the tone and sparks curiosity right from the start.

• Choose words that evoke emotion, whether it’s excitement, urgency, curiosity, or empathy. Powerful language helps create a connection with your audience and encourages them to engage with your content instead of just passing by.

• Social media users scroll quickly, so your hook should be brief and easy to digest. At the same time, it should resonate with your target audience’s experiences or interests, making them feel understood and prompting them to engage further.

• As usual, use Nuelink to keep your social media marketing plan running without investing much time and resources with its automation and scheduling features.
