Meta’s Bold Move with Threads
Did you ever think you’d see the day when Meta’s Threads would be duking it out with Twitter? Well, hold onto your hashtags because Threads has just leveled up! This week, Threads announced that users can now tag people in photos. Yes, you heard it right! No more awkwardly captioning a photo with ‘this is my friend Kelly who you definitely know.’ Now you can just tag her!
What’s New? A Media Tab!
Alongside the tagging feature, Threads has introduced a shiny new “media” tab. This tab allows users to see all the pictures and videos they’ve posted at a quick glance. It’s similar to what Twitter and its pint-sized rival Bluesky just rolled out, but Threads has thrown in the extra spice with the photo tagging feature. It’s like the difference between a plain old burger and one loaded with all the toppings!
The Basics: A Familiar Ring
While these updates might sound fancy, they also bring us back to some basics—like tagging! Remember how useful that was on Facebook? Well, now Threads is embracing that simplicity and finding ways to make your photo-sharing experience more interactive. Let’s be honest; who wouldn’t want to tag their friend in that hilarious video from last weekend’s barbecue? So, jump on Threads, try out these features, and tag away!
