Oculus and Samsung release a Series of new Virtual Reality Titles for Gear VR
Samsung and Oculus is working together to provide over 20 new virtual reality projects to Gear VR. In addition to the new titles, Samsung also provided a promotional/preorder run of Gear VR for consumers that purchased the Galaxy S8. For those that miss the preorder, Gear VR with the controller is $129. I suggest this model for virtual reality users that have had some experience with virtual reality, but still waiting for more people to adopt to consuming content on the same VR platform. One element that I enjoy about Gear VR with controller is that feels like a
Explore Effective Methods to Producing Engaging Web Content for Multimedia Creators
As the Internet continues to grow, the demand for content continues to grow. Web producers continue to face the problem of creating engaging content that connects with multiple demographics. The content and product is going to need to be refined to a point that is easy to consume, informative, and valuable enough to need to share with friends and family. When I first started blogging ten years ago, I would write about music related topics. Over the years, I have been able to refine that style of content, as well as exploring different avenues of content from sports, politics,
Advertising on Social Media in Comparison to Radio, Newspaper and Televison
As a media producer with over seven years experience producing Web content, I have been able to find out the best practices to advertising for different companies. Before a company sets an advertising budget, before a company opens their doors, and before they pick out a spot for the business, the first thing a company should do is create a new product that fills demand. Once the company has gauged the amount of revenue they will collect in comparison to spending costs, then they can start to create engaging ways to deliver the product to a mass market. The
Amazon Web Services Refine Products at the San Francisco Summit
Amazon Web Services hosted a two day summit in San Francisco on April 18 & 19. They provided insight on developments within the company, over 50 workshops and courses, and the opportunity to connect with employees at Amazon.

Business Wire and Amazon reported the following additions: Amazon Redshift Spectrum, a new feature that allows Amazon Redshift customers to run SQL queries against exabytes of their data in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX), a fully managed, highly available, in-memory cache that can reduce Amazon DynamoDB
The Facebook F8 Conference Lacks to Deliver Innovative New Products
The first day to the Facebook F8 Conference was held today. Overall I felt it lacked focus at demoing new products to get people excited about upcoming developments within the company. "We're making the camera the first Augmented Reality Platform." - Mark Zuckerberg The conference did shine light on social interaction within virtual reality. The Social VR application launched today on beta. Overall it looks cute, but has a lot of work to be done before it has a definable purpose. One major flaw I see in virtual reality shared experiences in general is compatibility. Users will need to have

YouTube vs. Spotify vs. Apple Music in a Three Way Fight for Market Share in Streaming Music
Public demand has reached an all-time high for streaming music services. Recently, reports have surfaced showing how much each streaming service is paying artists. First, I want to note that it costs a lot of money to build, maintain and store servers that data is kept on for each company. When you download videos in comparison to songs, you will see a major difference in file size. That file size for one song or video is multiplied when we take in consideration how many people are using and uploading content. My solution to the music streaming service is creating
