TWITTER ANNOUCED TODAY it is integrating podcasts into its redesigned Spaces Tab.
“We know that some discussions need more than 280 characters, and bringing people closer to the ideas, content and creators they know and love is core to Twitter no matter where the conversations take place,” a press release says.
“The redesign introduces personalized hubs that group audio content together by specific themes like News, Music, Sports, and more. Now Twitter listeners will be able to easily access a more personalized selection of live and recorded Spaces discussing the topics that are most relevant to them.”
The hubs will feature popular podcasts from around the world and will automatically suggest podcasts, helping “people easily find and listen to the topics they want to hear more about,” the release explains. “For example, if someone regularly interacts with Vox content on Twitter, they’ll probably see a Vox podcast in a Spaces hub.”
A group of English-speaking Twitter users from around the world using iOS and Android can test the new feature starting today. A Twitter Canada spokesperson confirmed for Cartt.ca this includes Canadian testers but did not say how many or explain how they are chosen.
