Clubhouse might be the new kid on the social media block, but it’s already been downloaded an estimated 10m times globally since its launch in April 2020. Now, life before the invite-only audio app seems like a distant memory. What did we do with our evenings before entering its ‘rooms’,Hoping to hear SpaceX and Tesla’s Elon Musk discussing life on Mars, or Lindsay Lohan talking to blogger Perez Hilton? In 2021, nothing gets a topic trending on Twitter quite like a Clubhouse chat.The app is the brainchild of Silicon Valley entrepreneur Paul Davison and ex-Google employee Rohan Seth, and while it’s still in the beta-testing stage, it’s helped satiate lockdown boredom, replacing Instagram deep-dives with moderated talks and discussions. Listeners can opt in and out of rooms created by hosts and guest speakers—one minute you might find yourself in one with Drake, the next you might be auditioning for a part in the hit musical Hamilton (true story).  » Read More

Just eight days after being shut down, Xiaomi’s instant messaging app MiTalk announced a comeback. The Chinese smartphone giant on Saturday said it would turn the app into an invite-only audio chat platform for professionals — akin to Clubhouse, the viral app that was banned in China. “MiTalk, begin again,” the company said in a notice posted on Weibo. “The new MiTalk is an audio chat app for professionals. Here, you can listen to sharing and insights of professionals in various industries, and you can also ‘raise your hand’ to participate in the sharing. At the same time, you can create topics of interest to you,” the description read, adding that a small number of users have already received an invitation for beta testing. MiTalk will be a completely brand-new product and there are no plans to transfer previous accounts and data. Following a 10-year run, MiTalk went offline on Feb. 19. The IM app failed to gain traction among Chinese users and lost to Tencent’s WeChat, which has 1.09 billion daily active users.  » Read More

Clubhouse, the drop-in audio chat app, has shot to fame in no time and has managed to get the attention of famous names like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg with its unique platform.However, there are significant privacy concerns that have been raised by a report from Inc's Jason Aten, citing Clubhouse policies that are available to the public. For starters, Clubhouse indeed records conversations. One of the app's biggest highlights is having a room full of speakers and an audience who want to discuss some topics and the exchange being on the platform for a brief period and never being available again as a recording.The audio app says that the recordings are temporary and done for supporting incident investigations. Here's what Clubhouse policy states, "Solely for the purpose of supporting incident investigations, we temporarily record the audio in a room while the room is live. If a user reports a Trust and Safety violation while the room is active, we retain the audio for the purposes of investigating the incident,  » Read More

Photo: DPA The new social network Clubhouse with voice communication at the core, or conversations in “rooms” as they are called, is gaining popularity. The platform gives the opportunity to ask questions to famous speakers, from Elon Musk to Oleg Tinkov. The network has already been banned in China, where it was used to discuss politics without censorship, and Clubhouse itself has already banned Russian television and radio host Vladimir Solovyov. Tatarstan entrepreneurs interviewed by Realnoe Vremya have already tried out the new resource and were satisfied with the results: first of all, the messenger removes barriers between people, dramatically “reducing the cost” of the opportunity to talk to any speaker directly. They are confident that the creators of Clubhouse will gain a foothold in the market, but for this, the company will have to monetise its audience. New messenger of pandemic era The coronavirus pandemic has given humanity not only many problems, but also new opportunities. In its wake, the most unusual startups and projects are becoming popular.

Shay Rowbottom Shay Rowbottom The tiny little drop-in audio app called Clubhouse is still making waves, and it’s not so tiny any longer. Case in point: I recently invited a few influencers like Shay Rowbottom to join a Clubhouse chat and noticed how a crowd gathered quickly. We’re talking about a few hundred people or so, but that’s far more than I’ve noticed during a few pitch meetings I’ve had in recent weeks.  Shay talked about what it means to be an influencer today, the need for authenticity, and how growing her platform on LinkedIn (which is about 600,000 strong now) was really an exercise in due diligence. She tends to produce videos that are wonderfully insightful and often funny, so I’m eager to see what she can do on Clubhouse. Another luminary named Alexa Carlin spoke during the chat about how being an influencer requires that you have something to influence people about in the first place. Will Huff,  » Read More

The Clubhouse app hosted another tech industry insider for an interview in recent days — this time, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. In a discussion hosted by journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin, Gates talked about everything from the coronavirus pandemic to COVID vaccines and the rumored Apple Car. Gates also explained why he prefers his Android phone to an iPhone. As soon as Bill Gates entered Clubhouse for the first time this week, journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin temporarily ignored some of the questions he’d planned to ask about everything from the coronavirus pandemic to climate change and Gates’ new book How to Avoid a Climate Disaster. Sorkin, instead, pointed out to the Microsoft co-founder that he was getting a barrage of tweets all asking the same thing, sent from people as soon they heard about Gates’ chat in Clubhouse, the hot new iOS-only social app: Wait, Bill Gates has an iPhone?

A data privacy and ethics expert believes there are several key data protection issues associated with the Clubhouse app. Clubhouse is an audio-only platform that users must be invited to join. It has already amassed legions of fans and several famous faces, including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Drake, Kanye West, and Oprah Winfrey. However, in recent weeks concerns have been raised about the company's privacy policies, with the firm promising to review its cyber-security. Daragh O'Brien, Managing Director of Castlebridge, said there are several data protection problems relating to Clubhouse. He outlined some of his concerns on the Tech Talk with Jess Kelly programme. "The first concern I have is that after the kerfuffle we had last year about Zoom, it looks like the promoters and founders of Clubhouse haven't learned anything about where the world is now in terms of people's attitude to data protection and what the laws that exist around the world actually are in terms of what you can do," he said.  » Read More
