Visual Poet – iPhone and iPad Review at Appotography
Visual Poet was originally released as an exclusive iPad app, but recently it has been released also on the iPhone/iPod Touch. As the name suggests, this is an app aimed at achieving creative results that combine two different but adjacent typologies of media: words and images. More in general, it could be a nice little tool for graphic artists who are interested in making use of their Apple devices to create something that goes a little beyond basic photography or simple writing. Alas, the app has some problem that might prevent users from truly enjoying it. Main Features 940 x 320 pixels resolution;Single three-paneled layout;Share via email or Tumblr;Use photos from Flickr, Tumblr, Google or photo library. Appotography Opinion I have to admit, I like a lot the idea behind this app. Visual Poet is not strictly a photography app, however it has a lot to do with photos and their employment. Apart from these considerations, how does the app actually work? Overall
Blue Feed, Red Feed
What is this? Recent posts from sources where the majority of shared articles aligned “very liberal” (blue, on the left) and “very conservative” (red, on the right) in a large Facebook study. In 2015, the journal Science published a research paper by Facebook scientists (Bakshy, Eytan; Messing, Solomon; Adamic, Lada, 2015, “Replication Data for: Exposure to Ideologically Diverse News and Opinion on Facebook”, Harvard Dataverse, V2) which looked at how a subset of the social network’s users reacted to the news appearing in their feeds. For six months, Facebook tracked and analyzed the content shared by 10.1 million of its users (who were anonymized). For a site appearing in the Journal’s red feed, a majority of the articles shared from it were classified in the study as “very conservatively aligned.” To appear in the Journal’s blue and red feeds, posts must have at least 100 shares, and come from sources with at least 100,000 followers. No. No. No.
