What's Twitter Spaces? Peer Review

It's an unconference, where anyone can speak and anyone can listen.

It reminds me of that night in 2007, when I was just thinking that the possibilities with Twitter were unimaginable, that it was like realising that thoughts could culminate in everything and anything.

Today, Twitter Spaces, is doing the same thing for conversations, where conversations can happen anywhere, with anyone about anything.

So right now, the biggest thought on everyone's mind, is how to do we deal with the pandemic here in India.

So let's get minds together and discuss.

The next question would be, how do we get people jobs?

So let's get the job givers and the job takers together, and discuss.

How do we get people to live better?

Get all the guys with their questions and preconceived notions about food and discussion.

Why is a bank app better than a UPI app.

Talk about it and let people ask.

In an unconference, like Barcamp, there is the principle of two feet. That if you don't like what you hear, take your feet and walk out.

That's what Twitter spaces is, an unconference, wherever you let it happen.

What needs to be made simpler, is a way to know what conversation is within, before you enter.

For example, if it's about sex, it needs a suitable warning, especially if that's not a topic you normally follow.

If it's in a language different from the language you are currently using, like German instead of English, you'd need a warning.

If it is about topics you actively follow, a green light around it would help.

Consider the Space icon as a doorknob, like Alice in Wonderland, a door to who knows where.

If the door is hot or red, then you know it's a topic you don't want to get into.

If it's a private club, then a separate message should appear, so that you are informed.

If it is for people of a specific country, a flag would help.

Think about Alice when she bites different sides of a mushroom. A bite from one side would make her tall, while another would make her short.

Similarly, training sessions can be shown as various biscuits or tapes like in the Matrix, which teach you what you want to learn.

The Tip Jar, should work in India too.

Today Twitter Spaces is for the world.
