Why the heck short videos everywhere?
In this blog, lets see how short videos make our life worse I take the metro every day to college, It's circa 1-hour journey. Sitting there by my book what I notice is no one else is having one. weird.. because when I was a kid I see many of them have some sort of book with them or else they be listening to some music or taking a quick nap but what now only I see are people swiping their fingers up. looking at their screen forgetting what's going on around them and have wanted to consume every micro sec of these short videos. Short videos huh? They may be short but the effect they have on us is not so. Nowadays I can't think of any social media or entertainment app that does not have some kind of short video feature Instagram has REELS Facebook has CLIPS Netflix has QUICK LAUGH YouTube has SHORTS... Are short videos so great that they need to have them? What's the problem with long videos, blogs, group chat portals, etc.? The problem is not complex actually short videos
