How we'll communicate online in 2021: 5 predictions
Martin SFP Bryant looks at how online communication will evolve in 2021, giving five predictions about:
- Online events
- Video calling
- Asynchronous communication
- Virtual worlds
- Moderation and polarisation
This video was supposed to be published earlier in the month, but then it all kicked off in the US and we thought it best to hold it off a bit, as you'll see...

STOP dunking people on Twitter
มุมมอง 2254 ปีที่แล้ว
Dunking that awful person's terrible tweet with a snarky quote-tweet is pretty standard behaviour on Twitter these days. It feels good to get retweets and likes from pointing out what an awful person someone is. Martin SFP Bryant explains why you should stop dunking, even if that person really deserves it.

Pitch review. Time to ditch PowerPoint and Keynote?

The iPhone 12's best feature? Magnets!
มุมมอง 1764 ปีที่แล้ว
The iPhone 12 has plenty of new features but they're mostly quite... predictable. However, the introduction of MagSafe charging points to the future of the iPhone. Martin SFP Bryant explains how by making wireless charging much less painful, Apple is signalling that the future is a completely cable-free iPhone. And guess what? It will be completely fine.

The Social Dilemma: Facebook's Baffling Response
มุมมอง 2554 ปีที่แล้ว
Netflix documentary-drama The Social Dilemma has everyone talking: whether they find it eye-opening about what goes on behind the scenes at their favorite social apps, or an overblown, hamfisted attempt to smear tech companies. Last week, Facebook's response emerged as a PDF, quietly uploaded to their website. But why did the company bother commenting publicly at all? And why are many of Facebo...
Xbox All Access: A PR timebomb?
มุมมอง 1444 ปีที่แล้ว
Xbox All Access is an excellent offering, but this is what debt looks like when it's dressed up like Netflix. By presenting 'buy now pay later' like it's a Game Pass-style subscription, Microsoft could be storing up PR problems for later, if the media catches wind of people who have suddenly realised All Access is less 'your all-inclusive pass to Xbox' and more 'a loan to buy an Xbox.'

So, you want to start your own newsletter. But what service should you use to make it? Two popular choices for editorial newsletters are Substack and Revue.

The future of tech product launches: Nintendo beats Apple
มุมมอง 454 ปีที่แล้ว
2020 has seen tech companies shift from 'Steve Jobs wannabe' on-stage events to far more creative, interesting pre-recorded launch videos. Nintendo Direct, not the 2007 iPhone launch, is suddenly far more relevant to the future of tech product launches. Some companies are even ditching the fake 'mystery' around the build-up to these events too. This is long overdue. 99.9% of tech execs are nowh...
Will Facebook stop working in the EU?!

    Dunking No matter how much recognition, boost in algorithm or anything like that. If they couldn’t handle being Dunked on they certainly wouldn’t handle their new found fame. Chef PI got dunked on so hard. She got a deal for her sauce and she STILL managed to ef everything up and ended up in a worst position than when she started. Dunking people does not lead them to success. More so exposes them to new found fame and it is up to them to learn how to work with it.

    • @bigrevolution6908
      @bigrevolution6908 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If it's the newsletters you're sending that are ending up in your subscribers' promotion tab, the main solution is to encourage them to move it into the main inbox tab until Gmail learns that's where they want it. If you can switch the emails to come from your own domain rather than Substack's that might help too, but as with Google's search algorithm, Gmail's sorting seems to get tweaked a lot.

Hanging gardens of Babylon, or whatever, with some VR tech, some AI-face-swapping onto 3D characters combined with something that reads and conveys your facial expressions... it could be a goer... each element missing would detract. But some of the interactive 3D seems worth it. Having said all that I'm following OpenAI blog and whatever we get would seem a short-lived productivity blip before the machines over-reach us. 5 - My solution last week was to delete Twitter altogether, I don't think it'll attain healthy interaction status.
