Clubhouse, the invite-only audio chat app that has delighted the tech industry elite, is looking for influencers. Why which social media app can be without influencers?

On a city ​​Hall on Sunday, the company announced that it was creating “Clubhouse Creator First, ” your first creator accelerator program. The program aims to support and equip 20 creators with the resources they need to host good conversations, build their audience and monetize, for Clubhouse. The deadline for submitting applications is March 31.

While all of this is nice and stylish – God knows I love to follow cat influencers on Instagram and TikTok, and yes, that’s one thing – the Clubhouse should probably consider making its influencers easy to find. (He should also focus on reinforcing your security, but this is a different story)

As pointed out by Wired, it’s not exactly easy to get an idea of ​​what someone’s like just by looking at the Clubhouse profile (although a brave user tried and thought this list). In contrast to Instagram and TikTok, you can’t just browse through someone’s previous Clubhouse chats, see how many conversations a user has participated in or how many people have enjoyed listening to them. No, you need to wait for the user to enter a room, listen to what he says and decide whether to follow him.

I mean, without offending the Clubhouse, but I don’t know if I have the patience for it. Who knows, maybe I am who I am losing. (Disclosure: I’m not at the Clubhouse).

In addition to announcing its acceleration program, the Clubhouse also shared some product updates. Users will now be able to share a link to their profiles or clubs and invite new users to the platform through their phone number.

This means that the Clubhouse will no longer need to access and ask users for access to their phone contacts to allow them to send invitations. Users can contact the company to request deletion of previously uploaded contacts, The Verge reported, and a tool to delete previously uploaded contacts is in development. In addition, the Clubhouse will remember the language of the rooms that users tend to enter and filter the others.
