“Fleets,” Twitter’s interpretation of Snapchat/Instagram-style stories, just opened up in India. The feature is slowly turning out the world over; after at first propelling in Brazil, the fleets came to Italy a month ago.
Since it was established in March 2006, there has been just one kind of post conceivable on Twitter: a tweet. Be that as it may, beginning today, the 280-character post is being joined by a transient South American cousin: the fleet.
That is the thing that Twitter is calling these new, all the more short-lived tweets — posts that show up in a different timetable over the fundamental course of events for 24 hours before vanishing.
At the end of the day, indeed, Twitter is, at last, doing Snapchat Stories, and the usage looks about indistinguishable from Instagram’s version of the feature.
“Twitter is for having discussions about what you care about,” Mo Aladham, a Twitter bunch item supervisor, said in a blog entry. “In any case, some of you disclose to us that you’re awkward to tweet since tweets are open, feel changeless, and have open checks (retweets and likes).
