  • This one is for the “newbie and wanna-be” Tech Engineers.

Techs will use the new feature in the GitHub hands-on practice Technology (GitHub Codespaces) to achieve this feat via LinkedIn Learning. You can get free courses on LinkedIn Learning until the 28th of February, 2023. Now, if you’re interested in IT, it’s a great opportunity to take advantage of the promo period to upskill.

  • WhatsApp is on a roll again.

It gets even juicier because video calls can now accommodate a whopping 32 people at a time, and there can be over 1K members in a group! Just wow!

  • And when you think you’ve heard it all, WhatsApp drops another bombshell for WhatsApp Business. Search functionality is now in place to find businesses by categories and business name, all on WhatsApp without it being traced back to you. So you can sneak in and sneak out. With this feature, you can find businesses near you, send messages and make purchases.

  • If you ever wished there were ways to message yourself on WhatsApp to enable you to keep important notes, save links, keep track of appointments, etc., then you’ll want to see this. WhatsApp introduces a new feature to help you do all that and more.
