As I mentioned in a video earlier this week, one of our plans for this year is to expand our output on short-form video platforms. These include YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, and possibly Facebook Reels, as well as X, Bluesky and Mastodon (if I ever master that particular platform). In each case, the aim is to get a concise, punchy message out in a format of under 90 seconds, and often under a minute. Our research suggests that midday is an optimal time for publishing these videos, but experience will tell us whether that is actually the case.
