The Description of Clubhouse
The clubhouse is a voice chat room. Everyone can only communicate by voice, not typing, and not being able to send pictures or videos. Just like its name, a house for a club, a community space. In Clubhouse, users do not need to add verified friends, only follow, unfollow and follow each other. Users can join different clubs and can create and join different rooms. These clubs are long-term, but rooms are temporary, a bit like WeChat groups, which are the carrier of every event. A room can be automatically generated when an event is created by an appointment time, or it can be created on the fly. There will be several roles in the room: administrator, speaker, listeners followed by the speaker, and other listeners. There are several types of rooms. The first type is completely private, and only participants can join in, and others cannot see it; the second type is the "social room", that is, only people who follow each other with the administrator can enter the room. The third type is completely open, that is, all the fans of the speakers in the room will be notified and can come in. The fourth is the room initiated within the club, which is only open to members of the club.

Clubhouse Reviews
The most important thing for society is the relationship chain. Clubhouse started from the venture capital circle in the United States and naturally has advantages on the chain. The quality of the people who participated in the early stage was very high, and the use of the invitation system and the continuous system for diffusion and management made the community atmosphere very good. But that's not enough to explain its addictive nature. Most Chinese users and Japanese users can't listen to those Silicon Valley geeks speaking technology in English after they come up.
Affected by the epidemic, this APP highlights its advantages even more. We all know that the epidemic in the United States is much more serious than that in China, and people's offline activities have decreased, so after the epidemic, the stock of the online video product Zoom has skyrocketed, so many people choose to vote by mail, then these people are "suppressed" Your communication needs need an outlet. In the United States, audio and video social tools such as Clubhouse and others have become popular. This is not an isolated phenomenon. Because of less going out, the more lonely people are, the more lonely they are, the more they need to find companions. The same situation exists all over the world, except for mainland China. However, on the mainland, we are still alone, right? Many old geeks and I have a feeling of returning to 2011. I feel that I have met many new friends here, which has inspired a lot of impulses to discuss and communicate. This kind of feeling was experienced in the early days of Weibo, Zhihu, and WeChat. Why can't we feel it today on top of them? Because they are all too mature and complicated now. This maturity and complexity are not only in the product itself but also in the relationship and content in the product, which is also very complicated. We are all accustomed to being visible in the Moments for three days, we are all used to only watching but not posting on Weibo, and we are all used to being a little transparent on Zhihu. So in the past few years, investors and entrepreneurs have had a constant question: where is the next WeChat? The clubhouse has some sort of answer.
The Clubhouse product is well designed, and we can admit it more succinctly. I feel the same way with many friends who are used to the product locust. This time, the "locust" is very different: the experience of Clubhouse is too smooth, and it is silky smooth to use. This smoothness is true from page interaction design to the fluency of voice, to the rules of operation. A good product itself is an online restoration of an offline experience. Clubhouse restores the effect of our offline participation in various meetings and parties, and this salinization will make it easier for many people who originally had difficulty expressing offline to express themselves. Mature technical conditions and user habits. WeChat did a good job of restoring the PC version of the mail experience to the mobile phone, but after so many years, do we need a new experience? For example, WeChat once considered a lot of mobile phone traffic costs, but now it does not exist.
In the market, there are still a lot of vacancies in the demand for "background sound". From various music apps, Himalayas, to getting apps, "Night Chat" in the public account, and podcasts that have become popular in China in the past two years, we see that there are still many scenarios where people need to use sound to fill their needs. What is the need? I define it as a "background sound" requirement. In many cases, the things we do at hand do not need to use all the brain calculations, so at this time, we always want something to fill.

Clubhouse Reviews
Clubhouse users can join and leave chats on different topics in real-time, free-flowing podcasts. In the joined conversation, users can simply listen or express their personal thoughts. It's a lot like an online networking clubhouse, or even a social cocktail party. But in practice, it's a mix of group discussions and professional meetings, a social media application.
What Clubhouse provides is voice-only. Users cannot use their cameras. Therefore, the user will be very free and not have to worry about being uncomfortable face to face or thinking about what they are going to wear or in which space to communicate remotely. This means that users can use Clubhouse in any situation such as commuting, running, doing housework, resting, etc. Clubhouse doesn't offer typing and click-to-send. Users also can't share memes, pictures, and videos, so it offers a premium conference call way to chat with others. All the users can do is speak. They just need to engage in communication and convey ideas with accurate tone and emotion. At the same time, users can join and leave conversations at any time.
In the past, Clubhouse was known and used as an online place to meet, chat, and share ideas, so its usage and programming were very basic. When users open the Clubhouse app, they'll see a clear list of "rooms" and a list within each room. Users are free to create and join its "rooms". But because users can't share text and pictures, video, so it provides a high-quality conference call to chat with others.
Clubhouse rooms are all open for users to jump in or out. The user just needs to click on it to join the room. The app is designed to help users explore more and different kinds of conversations. When a user enters a room of interest as an audience member, if they want to speak, they simply "raise their hand," and the creator of the room can choose to invite the user who raised their hand. Clubhouse rooms are mostly hosted by professionals such as celebrities, venture capitalists, pundits, journalists, etc. Because this is one of Clubhouse's features, the gathering of more outstanding and professional people has greatly increased people's use and attention. Of course, ordinary users are also free to create their own rooms for use. Users can rest assured that Clubhouse’s R&D team has also hired moderators. This is for moderation and oversight and to ensure the platform is a place for free speech and healthy conversation.
Clubhouse is an excellent mass social media application that brings invaluable communication and learning value to people. Participating in Clubhouse is now easier than ever. People simply download the app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and sign up.
