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

The Facebook F8 Conference Lacks to Deliver Innovative New Products

By |April 18th, 2017|Categories: Augmented Reality, California, Economy, Entertainment, Featured, Gaming, Google, National News, Pop Culture, Tech News, Virtual Reality, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , , , , |

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

Traditional forms of water management is being tested and refined each year as the global population continues to increase. Recently, the American Association for the Advancement of Science reported that a group of researchers for Department of Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that it is possible to capture and collect water from the atmosphere with the use of low-grade heat produced by solar energy. MIT added that in a report last year in Science Advances they reported that four billion people, with two billion of those people living in India and China, continue to face “severe water scarcity at least one month of

A Look at How Rewriting the Rules to Net Neutrality could Change the Internet

By |April 12th, 2017|Categories: Economy, Entertainment, Featured, National News, Tech News, TED Talks, United States, World News, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

Net neutrality and regulating the Internet continues to become more important on a national and international level. During the past conflicts with net neutrality within the United States companies have folded under consumer demand. A recent development on Internet privacy is the overturning of the regulations that the Obama administration had put in place to protect Web users. In another poor move to kick off the first 100 days, the Trump administration has now signed into law giving Internet providers more access to their consumers' information. The New York Times reported: “This is a repeal with no replacement.” - Danny Weitzner,

Google has launched a website titled WebVR Experiments to help manage and showcase the latest open source virtual reality projects on the Internet with JavaScript. In an era of decentralized products and technology, producing interactive projects on the Web can be difficult with the limitations set by browsers and digital devices. Google has launched a platform that uses JavaScript as the core coding language. WebVR Experiments has a selection of games, interactive media, and film projects to review. The Musical Forest is an interactive music-based VR project. Google Creative Lab produced this project, but I had seen a project
