Twitter Tools
There are some amazing updates to several popular Twitter-related tools. For anyone looking to create threads on Twitter, you'll want to take a look at these.

Check out the BlackMagic changelog to see this and other recent updates.
If you haven't heard of BlackMagic, it's "enhanced Twitter for pro tweeters". I can't even really do it justice here. Visit the website to learn more:

If you haven't heard of Typeshare, they say:
Write in our simple editor and publish natively to Twitter, LinkedIn, Medium, and your very own Typeshare Social Blog.
They recently released a ton of writing templates, including packs by well-known creators.
Beta Apps
The Taskade app itself isn't in beta, but their Zapier integration is. I've been looking forward to this one for a little while.
Check out the beta app on Zapier and their help documentation for more info.
