Learn Live Streaming Live streaming is a very different experience from other social media. When you click “Go Live”, the person in front of the camera will have to know what they are going to say, and will need to have enough content planned to entertain for upwards of 10 minutes without breaks. There is no post production in live video. It’s all in the moment, and there are no second takes....

If this sounds familiar, there’s a reason. It’s not the first time that Russia has blocked VPNs, and is unlikely to be the last. While VPNs aren’t strictly illegal in Russia, they do need to be government approved. Despite the Russian government’s distrust of VPNs, they have actually become a much relied upon tool, globally, for businesses and consumers during the pandemic. Why is Russia Blocking VPNs? According to the official government statement, action is being taken against the six named VPNs due to the fact that are facilitating law breaking....
The South Korean company is no stranger to having its products leaked. But, while a lot of leaks can be underwhelming, the S21 previews hint at a pretty interesting phone that could help Samsung stay ahead of the competition. Let’s take a look at everything we already know about the Samsung Galaxy S21. It looks relatively orthodox from the front. The S21 is set to have a 6.24-inch flat display with rounded corners....

Others, like TCL, Xiaomi, and even Motorola, have announced plans to pursue the foldable phone tech in 2020.

Danish icebreaker app Plane has eliminated all of the noise and presents a simple, authentic, and slightly retro interface through which people can connect. Plane was the brainchild of Tim Allison, the ex-CEO of Cupple (a social app that helps couples keep in touch better). He traveled a lot for work and found it hard to connect with people in new cities. With Plane, users create a very simple profile by uploading a photo and answering a couple fill-in-the-blank questions about who they are and what they enjoy....
After Twitter began tagging questionable COVID or election-based information, a new standard is hopefully slowly being pushed onto social media platforms, forcing them to police harmful lies about important issues. These businesses obviously never want to delete content if they can help it, as it can only serve to alienate users and bring forth claims of censorship. However, due to massive pushes from frustrated users, these platforms are finally making moves to limit the dangerous disinformation that is being spread....

Through SocialRank, users can easily discover which of their followers are “most valuable” (who are in the most demand), “most engaged” (who are engaging with you the most), or simply the “best follower” (basically your all-around most valuable + most engaging). For their first version of the product, Taub and cofounder Michael Schonfeld created a pretty bare-bones tool that gave brands the ability to discover their top 10 or top 100 for each of these categories (depending on whether you were running the free version or paid monthly for the premium version), and were provided with either monthly or daily reports....

The team at Mobizen thinks that it’s no longer a luxury to check in with your smart phone during the workday. Rather, today’s hyper-alert digital age demands constant awareness of developing news plus text, tweet, and various social media communications. This conflict of interests, so to speak, is the main inspiration behind Rsupport’s development of Mobizen. And during their beta testing Mobizen had 500,000 users around the world install and use the platform to solve this issue in their lives....

The interactive map expresses largely higher interest in sporting and entertainment events than the political debates....

Of course, the idea that you can buy items as seen in the movies is not an entirely new one. Merchandise like toys and clothes have been pushed out alongside the launch of many films in the past; just think of all the Disney movies. But, rarely do we see items worn in a film available to purchase immediately online. According to the Vulcan Post, The Kingsman collection came about as a result of a one-of-a-kind collaboration between costume designer Arianne Phillips and film director Matthew Vaughn....
