"Last year we introduced Spaces: live audio conversations on Twitter. Since then, we've been building and testing with a limited group, and have found that hearing people's voices bring conversations on Twitter to life in a completely new way. Since we've been building this, the ability to create a Space has become available to millions of people, and we've continued to make improvements based on your feedback. Today, we're bringing the ability to host a Space to all accounts with 600 or more followers on Twitter. People already come to Twitter to talk about what's happening. You've always followed people for their Tweets, now Spaces lets you hear their voices and talk about what's happening now and what's most important to you - live. From Tweeting to talking, reading to listening, Spaces encourages and unlocks real, open conversations on Twitter with the authenticity and nuance, depth and power only the human voice can bring. Spaces are for small and intimate conversations with just a few others, or for big discussions about what's unfolding right now with thousands of listeners. On Twitter for iOS and Android, when someone you follow starts or speaks in a Space, it'll appear at the top of your timeline as a purple bubble for as long as it's live. When you join a Space as a speaker, in addition to talking, you can pin Tweets to the Space, turn on captions so everyone can follow along with what you're saying, and Tweet the Space so your followers can join. When you create a Space, you're in control - who's speaking, the topics, and the vibe. Invite people to join by Tweeting or DM'ing them to jump in and then invite them to speak directly from your Space. From there, talk about whatever is happening in your world." |
