Linktree adds Threads integration: Link in bio tool Linktree announced it has integrated Threads into its social media ecosystem. This new feature means creators can connect directly to their Threads account along with their other social media accounts on Linktree and embed Threads posts themselves among their collection of links. Linktree’s blog post announcing its Threads integration highlights the tumult surrounding Musk’s “X” rebranding, stating, “In light of recent news, such as Twitter’s shift to ‘X,’ using a platform like Linktree to direct audiences to the profiles they value most is incredibly useful.”

Meanwhile, Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet and Google, reported Shorts viewership increased by 500 million logged-in users in the past year, from 1.5 billion to 2 billion.
