Elon Musk recently debuted on Clubhouse, an invite-only social networking app based on audio-chat.
Users can listen in to conversations and interviews between people on various topics, similar to podcasts, but the conversations are live on the app in different ‘rooms’.
Founded in 2020 by Stanford University alumni Paul Davison and Rohan Seth, Clubhouse is reportedly valued at $1 billion. The app allows users to tune in to discussions, conversations and interviews based on ones own interests.
The audio-based app has created a lot of buzz to an extent that a market for buying an invitation to the app has begun on Reddit, eBay and Craiglist social networks.
Many celebrities, including Kanye West, Drake, Ashton Kutcher and Kevin Hart, are active members on the app.
