This Just In: It’s Friday-Eve! Time for Another Social Media Run Down!

The holidays are quickly approaching. *Insert Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness’ “Can you believe?”*

TikTok and Instagram are providing businesses with e-commerce guides to help you start marketing your products! Both apps have increased their efforts to help brands share their products with unique shopping tools, so it only makes sense to give these businesses easy and concise guides to help! Who else pictured a world where we could buy all of our Christmas gifts through Instagram? *crickets*

Following Twitter, TikTok will soon allow you to pin some of your favorite videos to your profile! TikTok. Understood. The. Assignment. By providing this new option, new followers can see what you’re working with!

On to Snapchat! This platform is releasing a new lens to help people learn sign language. Not only this, but they are also assisting brands by giving out a marketing guide to help businesses celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. Do you hear that @ all other social media outlets?

Let’s take a moment of silence for the inclusivity they are bringing to the table.

*moment of silence*

Next up, our tried and true, Facebook! *All the boomer’s cheer* (Just kidding, we love Facebook.) This social app looks to gain more engagement in Facebook groups by creating the option to hand out “Community Awards.” And who doesn’t love a participation award?

But where are our wannabe FBI agents at? Rumor has it Facebook could be taking away the feature that allows you to see who looked at your story. But then….what’s the point? I know. Guess we’ll just have to go to Instagram to continue our snooping!

Well, that’s all for today’s run-down. Let’s see what starts trending this upcoming week!
