Twitter Wants to Be More Like Instagram, Snapchat, and Other Social Media Leaders
Twitter (NYSE: TWTR) launched its Fleets disappearing-message feature today. It also announced Spaces, a feature that allows users to participate in audio-based chat rooms. Each of these new services appears to be aimed at bringing popular features offered by social media competitors into the core Twitter application.
Fleets functions much like tweets, except this new category of messages will have a separate feed and disappear 24 hours after publication, making the new content category similar to disappearing posts offered on Snap's Snapchat platform and Facebook's Instagram. Spaces, which is drawing comparisons to Clubhouse's voice-chat app and has yet to be released, will allow users to join chat rooms and have audio conversations with other users.
