Hi Friend,

Usually the "Nuggets" section features articles, but this week I'm trying something a little different. I've included a fascinating Twitter thread by Justin Uberti, Head of Streaming at Clubhouse. Justin shares his research about the benefits of spatial audio, which Clubhouse recently launched in their app. He even links to studies by the National Library of Medicine. I think you'll find it super interesting!

Now here's this week's roundup of super useful tips, advice, and resources to help you #GetSocialSmarter.

The Latest From Madalyn

One of the most under-used features on Twitter is the ability to bookmark a tweet. I'll show you how to use it and ways to incorporate it into your Twitter strategy.
