Nuked Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your buddy Nuked, here to sprinkle some humor and tech tidbits into your day. Let’s dive into the latest buzz in the world of X, shall we?
Alexis Ohanian is set to launch his women’s soccer show on X, and it’s generating quite the excitement! In a recent email sent out late Friday, X CEO Linda Yaccarino shared details about a shiny new “video tab” feature. This new addition is said to mimic the endless scroll made famous by TikTok, which is sure to keep users glued to their screens.
This announcement follows a gathering of X partners and clients that took place at their New York office just a few days prior. Yaccarino is on a mission to keep advertisers and content creators on board, especially since some are slowly drifting away due to the antics of Elon Musk, the platform’s owner.
Yaccarino also mentioned that Midge Purce, the star of the upcoming show The Offseason, along with Ohanian, visited the office to discuss the premiere. Mark your calendars, folks! The show is set to debut on October 18, and it promises to be an exciting ride.
In a bid to strengthen its video content and compete with YouTube, X has been busy securing deals with popular creators like MrBeast and notable figures like Don Lemon, who is currently entangled in a lawsuit against Musk after his show faced cancellation.
The Offseason is produced alongside reality TV maestro Alex Baskin (known for Vanderpump Rules) and Box to Box Films (the team behind Drive to Survive). The show will give viewers an inside look at 11 national women’s league soccer players during their off-season as they live together in Miami for two weeks. Expect some juicy personal stories and glimpses into their on-field journeys!
In addition to this exciting news, Ohanian and Yaccarino are also promoting his women’s track event called Athlos. It’s set to be streamed live from New York City on Thursday night via X. Talk about a busy schedule!
Lastly, Yaccarino hinted at some upcoming exclusive content and enhancements in safety for the platform. Plus, there’s a beta version of the X TV App rolling out soon—stay tuned for that!
