#4 — Meta Threads, and that giant ball in Vegas

Threads has launched, and it could mean very bad things for Twitter... maybe. And have you seen that enormous ball that's showed up in Vegas? WOW.


Description

Meta (Facebook) has launched Threads, a standalone app that you can login to with your Instagram account to access what many have called a twitter copycat. Is it Meta just giving people what they want, or their desperate attempt to stay relevant after Instagram dies.

And have you seen that giant ball in Vegas? It's been impossible to miss for locals as it now illuminates the night sky with the worlds largest LED screen. I'm calling it now, whoever comes after humans will remember this more than the pyramids in a thousand years.

Sorry for the delay on this one, I quit my job and they worked me hard last minute. The usual.
