tiktok users can now upload up to 10 minutes long videos

For the past several months, TikTok has been testing a 10-minute maximum upload limit by enabling it for select users. Now, the social network of choice for youngsters has rolled out the ability to upload longer videos to everyone.

Before the official increase of the video length limit, TikTok users were limited to just 3 minutes of video content, which was still more than the initial limit of just 15 seconds, which was later expanded to 60 seconds.

“We’re always thinking about new ways to bring value to our community and enrich the TikTok experience” a spokesperson from TikTok said in a statement. “Today, we’re excited to start rolling out the ability to upload videos that are up to 10 minutes, which we hope would unleash even more creative possibilities for our creators around the world”.

The longer video format is expected to quickly become popular across multiple genres of TikTok videos, including educational content, beauty tutorials, and cooking demonstrations.

While such videos are already thriving on TikTok, their creators often complained about feeling restricted by the 3-minute limit and not being able to create the same in-depth content as creators on YouTube can. With the new limit, the same creators can finally fully unleash their creative potential and give their fans the content they crave.

But TikTok isn’t the only social network that’s actively exploring how it can better compete with its rivals. Last year, YouTube launched its short-form video sharing platform, called YouTube Shorts, to users around the world, and Instagram did the same with its Reels in 2020.

Both YouTube and Instagram were clearly inspired by TikTok, and it will be interesting to see what else will these social networks copy from one another as they fight for users and their limited time.

uae prepares to launch two satellites thuraya-2 and mbz-sat

HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, chaired the first meeting of the Supreme Space Council in Dubai on December 16, 2024. The session highlighted the UAE’s ambitious space plans and took stock of the sector’s economic progress.

The council emphasized the growing role of private companies in advancing space technologies, noting that their contributions are now equal to that of the public sector. Members also praised initiatives like the Space Economic Zones Programme, which are designed to fuel innovation and investment in the space industry.

Discussing the UAE’s space journey, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum remarked, “The national space sector continues to grow and advance, and we take immense pride in the remarkable achievements we have accomplished over the years”.

Sheikh Hamdan also received updates on two upcoming satellite projects: Thuraya-2 and MBZ-SAT. Thuraya-2, developed by Space42, is slated for launch this December. Meanwhile, the MBZ-SAT, created by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), will soon follow. MBRSC, a major driver of the UAE National Space Programme, continues to lead the nation’s space-related developments.

Space42 took the opportunity to showcase its advancements, including ongoing collaborations between public and private entities. The company also outlined strategies to promote innovation, boost revenue streams, and create new opportunities for growth in the sector.

The UAE’s current projects build on a growing legacy of space exploration. Back in 2020, the nation made headlines with its Mars mission, successfully sending a probe into the planet’s orbit in 2021. This mission, which is now in its second phase as of June 2024, has been collecting critical data to develop a comprehensive diurnal image of Mars.

The UAE also ventured into lunar exploration with an unmanned mission aimed at studying untouched regions of the Moon’s surface. While the probe ultimately crashed during its landing attempt after communication was lost seconds before touchdown, the effort represented a significant step in the country’s exploration ambitions.
