On Wednesday night, I downloaded Threads, the new social media and messaging app from the people that brought you Facebook and Instagram.
I wasn’t the only one. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that within the first 7 hours of Threads existence, more than 10 million people signed up. Which is pretty amazing.
I’ve been using the app for the past 12 hours or so (not straight!) and have a few thoughts. I wanted to try something different so I recorded my thoughts on video. They’re below.
Have you checked out Threads yet? What do YOU think?
On Threads shall the equivalent of a “Tweet” on Twitter be “Stitch”?
Chris,
Thanks for the update from the Social Media desk at "So What? Central ."
It gives those of us not part of the Twitterverse, to understand that for me Thread is "just passing fancy in my midnight dream."*
