LinkedIn just announced the launch of Stories, and will start rolling out the feature on mobile in the US and Canada. Plus: users will be able to launch video meetings within LinkedIn messages, thanks to integrations with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and BlueJeans by Verizon.
Pinterest tests Stories Pins Speaking of Stories, Pinterest is also attempting to take a stab at the feature with Stories Pins. It's currently in beta.
Instagram updates Reels to keep up with TikTok After early criticism of Reels, Instagram's version of TikTok, the company has made adjustments. TikTok videos are typically around 15 seconds long, but a user can share a video up to 1 minute in length. Now, Instagram is extending the allowed video length from 15 seconds to 30 seconds. Instagram has also extended the timer up to 10 seconds, allowing users to trim and delete clips to make editing easier. Don't forget you can also upload your own content, including videos edited in tools like WeVideo.
