I made a suggestion for Improved User Profiles on Telegram.

Do you think that is clear? Helpful?

Anything else you'd like to add?

Anyone managing a brand on social should take a look at Telegram's tweets and replies tab on Twitter.

Sure your client may not allow the freedom to craft a brand voice quite as well rounded, but there is plenty there to see and gain insight from.

Please read this short blog article I wrote last night.

Then let me have your feedback or comments.

I'm not using this post for comments on the article this time. which I usually do, so there is a non-Telegram commenting option available there this time.

The article once again tackles the subject of Telegram replies, but this time focuses on value for the user themselves.

Twitter adds the Spaces button as the center button of their mobile App, (at least on Android) in a bid to get people more involved.

But has the audio bubble already burst?

Not sure how new (or useful) this is, but you can now search a person's tweets from their Twitter profile.

Do you need a seperate YouTube channel for Shorts?

MKBHD has officially announced a new channel for shorts. It's a trend at the moment, but is it the right way to go and why do YouTubers feel that there is a need for seperate channel for shorts?

Personally my view is that shorts aren't their own thing on YouTube. They are often used to make a short version of a long video on the same channel and this duplication is what suggest that the seperation is a good idea.

I'd say YouTube has dropped the ball. What was and still is needed are notification filters. So that subscribers can choose what they want to be notified of from a channel: no shorts, just shorts etc.

What's your view?

Introducing: Twitter Reply downvotes

[ Privately downvote low value replies. ]

Nice idea, but will Twitter users take action frequently enough to provide useable data.

Will I? πŸ€” - Will you?

Something I've asked on Twitter.

Which do you think will win out? a
... And why?
YouTube's videos descriptions have moved

This may be an A/B test, but I'm seeing (on the Youtube desktop site) video description no longer expanding below thge video, but are now displayed to the right.

When the decription is long enough there is an aditional "More" button to expand the decription box further.

I understand the logic of this as the viewer can read the description while the video plays in place, but it feels to me like it's less connected to the videi itself.

Are you seeing this on desktop too?
Whay do you think?
