Why Publishers are Shifting Away From Facebook

In the world of digital journalism, the one constant we’ve all grown accustomed to is change. I bet you can relate to just how frustrating it can be sitting at conferences hearing about the next, great thing, knowing chances are good it won’t even be an afterthought three years from now.
      Well, change has come again for many publishers, but this time it isn’t some new social network promising the world, or a shiny new app offering untold digital riches. It’s actually a word we use everyday — Google.

Why Visual Communication Will Dominate Marketing tomorrow

With the average human attention span calculated at 8 seconds, marketers are finding it increasingly hard to grab the attention of their audiences. This short attention span combined with the plethora of content created makes a marketer’s job a nightmare. So it isn’t a surprise that more and more marketers are turning towards visual communication in their marketing efforts.
      Visual communication has many benefits and arguably the most important on is the ability to process information faster. In fact, humans process visuals 60,000 times faster compared to plain text. One caveat to this is that it may not always be the correct information. That’s because visuals are more open to interpretation than plain text.
