OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Carmella Boykin is part of the team that has pioneered the use of TikTok at the Washington Post. Previously, she worked as a local TV news reporter in Rochester, New York. Their channel has 1.6 million followers, 74 million likes, and has won three Webby Awards. With the threat of a U.S. TikTok ban looming, we ask what lessons can be learnt from this team, and whether they can be applied to other platforms.
