YouTube introduces new TikTok-style live rings to indicate if a channel is live-streaming

YouTube has introduced a new metric that shows whether a channel is live on the platform. When the channel is live, viewers will now see a ring with the word “Live” around the channel’s profile picture. Users can join the live stream by simply clicking on their profile picture. This feature is designed to make it easier for users to know if a channel is live while browsing. YouTube Chief Product Officer Neal Mohan announced the feature on Twitter.

In case you haven’t noticed, this new YouTube feature looks very similar to TikTok’s, displaying a pulsating ring around the channel’s profile picture when the channel is live on the platform. On Instagram, you can tell when a channel is live by the colored ring that appears around your account avatar.

Previously, YouTube introduced a vertically scrolling newsfeed called Shorts for its short video content. This feature is also similar to TikTok’s News Feed, which introduced it first.

YouTube recently released its 2022 roadmap, announcing the launch of collaborative live streaming, allowing creators to live together and create more interactive streams for viewers. “The ability to ‘live together’ promises to open up streaming for more casual conversations and interactions with other developers, making it easier and more fun to go live,” Mohan wrote in a blog post.

One of the main highlights of this roadmap is investing in NFTs. The company also said it plans to use the Metaverse to make listening more immersive. “The first area where you can expect impact is games, and we’re going to try to bring more interaction to games and make them feel more alive,” the YouTube executive added.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
