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.

When I saw that she landed a major magazine cover, I decided to Google her and then I uncovered an amazing feature that you probably haven’t heard about called Cameos on Google.
If you Google Olivia Culpo on your phone – this feature only works on mobile – you’ll see there’s a section near the top called Top Questions Answered. Olivia’s Google results feature 5 short videos of her answering questions. For example, she says that she stays in shape by running. They’re filmed in different locations, she looks beautiful in all of them and they’re quick snippets, which are perfect for our attention span.
