Mark Zuckerberg's Meta just announced its first-ever dividend, which is something that rapidly growing tech companies rarely do. Dividends have been shunned in favour of corporate buybacks for decades. Is this a sign of change in the relationship between shareholders and corporations? Today on the show, we discuss the return of the dividend.

Is Threads the place to be or, uh, boring and not worth it? The latest loud social media splash is Threads, a direct Twitter – now X – competitor from Mark Zuckerberg's Meta. It was the fastest social media platform to 100 million users, but since then engagement has dropped precipitously. Which all leads to the question above. More specifically, how much should healthcare provider marketing and communications teams be investing in any given social media platform? Is Threads worth diving into? Even beyond Threads, there's the deeper issue of too many platforms and channels and not enough resources within hospital marcomm offices to be present everywhere. So, where do you invest? This week it's an all-Jarrard podcast, with Abby McNeil, Meghan McCarthy and Tommy Barbee bringing their extensive background in healthcare marketing, communications and digital strategy to the Threads debate. Key Insights Threads doesn't make sense for most organizations. Not worth it. Borin, even. Today, it's a better spot for individuals and influencers. That said, it may be worth having a couple of people on your team to sign up and keep an eye on the platform as it evolves A few healthcare organizations are in a good position to use Threads. Namely, academic medical centers and research institutions that are known for cutting-edge innovation and that are looking to engage and recruit students or researchers – the people who might have that personal account. In the end, it's crucial to know what you're trying to accomplish and where your target audience is before investing in any social media platform. Otherwise, you're just stressing your social media managers. Also, just to be clear, Jarrard Inc. is not on Threads.

Everyone's talking about Threads, the new social media platform launched by Mark Zuckerberg's Meta last week. Jan and Tom signed up immediately, as they did when Twitter and Instagram launched. In this episode of The Briefing, Jan Fran and Tom Tilley discuss why you'd sign up for Threads, whether it will survive and whether we even need ANOTHER social media platform.   Headlines: Hollywood set to shut down Elon Musk launches his own A-I startup Kevin Spacey takes to the witness box  France is making fashion more sustainable   Follow The Briefing:Instagram: @thebriefingpodcast Facebook: TheBriefingNewsAUTwitter: @TheBriefingAUSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Many social media platforms have tried to take on Elon Musk's Twitter and now Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has launched 'Threads', another app of text-based postings. Despite a somewhat bumpy rollout and some claims of censorship, could 'Threads' become a 'Twitter killer'? FOX's Eben Brown spoke with Kelly O'Grady, FOX Business Network correspondent, about this latest challenge to Twitter and whether or not it will succeed.   Click Here To Follow 'The FOX News Rundown: Evening Edition' Learn more about your ad choices.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has launched its new app that's expected to compete with Twitter, which has faced backlash under Elon Musk's ownership. The text-based app known as Threads looks nearly identical to Twitter and has seen more than 30 million users sign up since Wednesday's launch.

It has been less than a month since Elon Musk officially took the reins at Twitter. In that short time, there have been mass layoffs, advertisers have pulled back on spending, and some of the platform's most prominent users have threatened to leave. But Twitter is not the only social media company experiencing upheaval. In the last year, Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has lost hundreds of billions of dollars in value and cut more than 10,000 jobs. Diane spoke with Ian Bogost, director of the film and media studies program at Washington University in St. Louis and a contributing writer at The Atlantic. In a recent essay Bogost asks if the age of social media is ending, and explains why he thinks that might not be such a bad thing.

Bryan tells a folksy anecdote about a rest stop he frequents on his commute to work. Donald Trump calls the governor of Florida “Desanctimonious”. There was an ad blitz by political candidates over the weekend just days before the midterms. KNOW IT ALL: 1) Polls show republicans have the advantage on issues Americans care most about. 2) U.N. climate conference begins. 3) Millions of Kyiv residents face cold winter as Russia attacks infrastructure. 4) 75-year-old woman in Oregon disappeared after leading police on a chase. // David Letterman travels to Ukraine to interview President Zelenskyy. Teen calls 911 from McDonald's freezer, hears mom on the other line. Police arrest 75-year-old after high speed pursuit. // Large-scale layoffs coming to Mark Zuckerberg's META.

Kanye West has agreed to buy Parler, a conservative social media platform following Instagram & Twitter banning him from using their platforms last week over antisemitic posts. What do we know/need to know about Parler? It's one of many right-wing-friendly social media platforms to emerge in the Donald Trump era. We question what entertainment or debatable content stream could ever trickle from a social media platform that welcomes an audience with merely one political belief and ideology alongside others far more open and unbiased. Netflix will charge $6.99 a month for a new ad-supported subscription starting November 3rd in the U.S. If this isn't something we'd invest in, we ask why? Apple's new AR/VR headset will include iris scanning biometrics to switch user accounts and authenticate payments just like the iPhone. Retailing at more than double the cost of Mark Zuckerberg's Meta headset, will Apple lead against the creator of the metaverse experience on immersive hardware? Liz Truss' ‘trickle-down economics' is dead. Faith in UK politics falls again, with the nation feeling more de ja vu. As well as this, there's an obvious comparison and lack of trust in Truss from the past of UK female political personalities.

The term “metaverse” was coined in a 1993 science fiction novel. Since then, it's grown from a dystopian literary concept to a reality that corporations want to sell you. Strap on some VR goggles and escape your tired analog life! Except that the systemic issues we already have seem to be creeping into the metaverse, too. As the lines between virtuality and physicality continue to blur, companies like Mark Zuckerberg's Meta are setting their sights on virtual worlds. It's a new frontier, full of potential – and full of our valuable data. Metaverses like Second Life or World of Warcraft can be positive and even game-changing experiences on the individual level, but when it comes to navigating a virtual society with a capitalist backdrop…things get a bit dicey. On this episode, guest host and producer Ren Bangert explores the metaverse. First, we hear a love story from the glory days of Second Life, told to us by Sandrine Han – a scholar of virtual worlds and a long-time Second Lifer. Then, writer and game developer Ian Bogost takes us on a deep dive into the corporatization of the metaverse. We'll hear how the metaverse has grown from a dystopian warning from science fiction to a sinister data-mining reality – and how even the shiniest of tech utopias are still functioning under the same old capitalism. —————————-SUPPORT THE SHOW—————————- You can support the show for free by following or subscribing on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or whichever app you use.

Fears are mounting over a potential catastrophe at Europe's largest nuclear power plant located in Ukraine. Officials there suggest that Moscow is planning to attack the power plant and blame it on Kyiv. We take a look at what Putin would gain from shutting down the facility. And Vanessa Bryant breaks down and sobs on the witness stand, telling a courtroom today that she still suffers from panic attacks and anxiety. Plus, Mark Zuckerberg's Meta launches a virtual reality game “Horizon Worlds” in France and Spain. We take a look at why he's getting dragged on the internet for how “ugly” the graphics of the game are, and how he responded to the criticism.

A variety of topics are discussed including “algospeak”, metaverse interoperability, creating a digital twin of the earth, LEGO's new metaverse investments in collaboration with Epic Games, centralized vs decentralized moderation, new smart cities integrating the metaverse, how Apple may have an advantage over Mark Zuckerberg's Meta, and more!
