My annual Instagram break in the winter has lasted longer than usual and I can’t really complain! I’ve posted less often in the winter because it’s hard to take pictures outside in Toronto in the cold. In the past, I lost some followers between December and February as a result. It was noticeable, but not a big deal and then I gained more in warmer months.
It’s amazing how much value you can get from a free app like Clubhouse. In the last month, I’ve listened to Diane von Furstenberg, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian’s best friend Allison Statter while sitting in my bedroom. If those were in-person events, none of them would be in Toronto and they would cost at least $50 to attend, plus airfare and accommodations for me. That’s huge savings! I would totally consider a paid subscription someday.
I have tons of Twitter drafts, so I’d love to support Twitter’s new Fleets feature that lets you send ephemeral tweets. The first time I tried Fleets on Twitter, I got 3 views in 3 hours and I have 1,000+ followers. Clearly my first experience was disappointing; however, I’d still like to discuss the potential benefits of Fleets because other accounts could have better results. It was also reassuring when I DM’d a popular content creator who said his Fleets have more views than his Instagram Stories.
