The audio-chat app Clubhouse is the latest rage in the social media landscape. It is different from other social media in that it focuses on the spoken word. Members can enter virtual rooms to listen in or participate in live conversations. The conversations can only be joined when they are live and the people having the conversation determine who is allowed to listen and who can talk. The app is freely available for download to every iPhone user, but participation is kept exclusive by making it invitation only. An investigation by the Stanford Internet Observatory found that some of the back-end infrastructure for the app was provided by Agora.”]
