    YouTube announced today that it's rolling out the Community tab -- a social feature released among a few select creators last year -- to all creators with more than 10,000 subscribers. However, it noted that a new video function is in the works as well. They're called "Reels" and much like Instagram or Snapchat Stories, they allow creators to stitch together short videos shot from their mobile devices and add things like filters, music and text.

    Last year, YouTube launched its Community tab -- a social feature that lets creators engage with their followers through text, video, photos and more. At launch, YouTube had extended the feature to just a few creators, and the rollout has been slow ever since. But the response has been pretty positive and YouTube said it planned to add more channels following the launch. Well, today, Golden State Warrior and big Community tab fan Kevin Durant tweeted that he had heard the feature would open up to more creators quite soon. And YouTube Chief Product Officer Neal Mohan all but confirmed that is indeed the case.
