News & Reviews:   Clubhouse

Based on a tweet by Twitter user @alex193a, it seems that Facebook is currently working on Live Audio and Audio rooms which could be Facebook’s answer to Clubhouse. With that in mind, it may soon be possible for users to host their own private audio rooms similar to Clubhouse in the near future.

If you talk about recent hot topics, one of them would have to be Clubhouse. The voice-chat app's popularity has exploded since been recommended by Elon Musk. Now it has to find ways to keep its millions of new users and that includes new features.

Based on a statement by theverge.com, it seems that Twitter might be planning on rolling out Spaces, which is a feature that allows users to create virtual rooms for hosts to interact with other users by April 2021. While not much is known in regards to the exact date Malaysia will be getting the aforementioned feature, it does give us a better idea of when to expect it.

When an idea is popular, everyone wants to copy it. For social media platforms, that happened with the Stories format and it's happening again. Specifically, we're talking about audio rooms as Instagram has become the next platform to copy it.

As Clubhouse slowly makes its way to the Android platform, Xiaomi have apparently taken the app development into their own hands. It was officially announced by Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun that a new Mi Talk app is in the works but will be revamped as a voice chat platform just like Clubhouse.

The increasingly popular voice-based social platform Clubhouse has been visited by the co-founder of Microsoft Bill Gates recently. On the platform, he had shared some of his interesting thoughts during a session about few things. Let's read on to find out what did the business leader say!

If you're active on social media, you've probably heard about Clubhouse by now. If you haven't, you can get an overview of it here. Anyway, the app has taken the world by storm, but it was only available for iOS users thus far. Fortunately, an Android version should be on the way.

If you think Clubhouse is not really a big deal and overrated, think again. Just over the weekend, BBC has reported that the app doubled in over two weeks. From 1 February until 16 February, it has already reached 8.1 million downloads on the iOS app store from 3.5 million.

Based on a statement by techradar.com, it seems that Facebook might also be working on a feature that’s similar to Clubhouse called Facebook Fireside which will feature an invite-only voice and video functionality. While not much is known in regards to when it will be globally available, it does give us a better idea on what to expect from Facebook in the coming months.

Based on a statement by techradar.com, it seems that Twitter has recently introduced a feature called Spaces, which comes with features similar to that of Clubhouse. Unfortunately, the feature is currently available only to selected users in India and there’s no news on when it will be coming to Malaysia.
