What Twitter Notes Means For Writers
And what not
It’s here in a closed beta, but it's hitting the public soon. We’re talking about Twitter Notes.
What does this mean for writers?
Twitter has already been the premiere social network for writers. With Notes, we can write entire blog posts on Twitter.
Imagine:
Twitter is taking on Substack. Twitter has its own newsletter tool Revue. I could see them integrate that directly into Twitter via Notes.
Twitter might favor & push Notes over external links to other writing platforms. Huge deal for audience-building.
Twitter could add a subscription-based model for Notes writers, much like a paid newsletter on Substack.
