Have You Heard About Twitter's Brand New "Notes" Platform?

 Have You Heard About Twitter's Brand New "Notes" Platform? Twitter is mostly credited for popularizing microblogging; the platform's original character restriction of 140, which was eventually increased to 280, was responsible for fostering genuine innovation in users of online platforms. Having said that, it is not always appropriate to confine an idea or concept to a few phrases. In the past, users of Twitter have resorted to threads for building on ideas, which connects a large number of tweets into one continuous narrative. Because the business has revealed that it is working on incorporating full-fledged blogging into its platform, it seems that the days of depending just on threads may be coming to an end.

Notes - A brand New Feature

Twitter unveiled Notes, a brand new feature that is presently being tested with a small number of authors, hours after whispers of an extension beyond 280 words began to circulate online. Notes is a brand new feature that Twitter is currently testing. The concept behind Notes is quite straightforward: given that newsletters are currently more well-liked than they have ever been, transforming Twitter into a full-fledged blogging platform (while retaining the 280-character limit for the majority of the site) ought to attract a new audience to the platform without compromising what sets it apart from other social media platforms in the first place.

What we can expect?

You will be able to pick "Write" from the sidebar once Notes is pushed out to a wider audience. This option should appear between Messages and Bookmarks once it is live. Because Twitter has a testing group, a small number of Notes have already been made public on the website, providing us with a glimpse of how this writing platform will ultimately seem after it has been fully developed. Each Note is associated with your Twitter account, and in place of the customary byline, your Twitter handle and username will appear instead. It is comparable to other blogging systems, such as WordPress, in that it enables images, embedded tweets, paragraphs, and text formatting (including bold and italics), among other features. And course, after you've published a Note from your account, you'll be able to add it to a standard tweet in order to direct people's attention directly to your new venture.

As part of the announcement made today, Twitter has also relaunched Revue, the newsletter platform that it acquired the previous year, as Twitter Write. This specific account was used to indicate the availability of the new functionality. It is not yet described, but it is simple to picture Notes becoming a mechanism for authors to commercialize their writing, similar to the way that Substack functions at the present time. It is only one of the many questions that pertain to this function, which is obviously still in its infancy at this point.

पुल जो छोड़ गया हमारा साथ, कानपुर की पहचान

  पिछले दिनों कानपुर का 150 साल पुराना गंगापुल टूट गया। इस पुल पर से कई बार गुजरे हैं। अनेक यादें जुड़ी हैं। पुल गिरने की खबर मिलने पर देखने गए पुल। शहर होते हुए घर से दूरी 15 किलोमीटर। गंगाबैराज की तरफ़ से जाते तो दूरी 23 किलोमीटर दिखा रहा था। समय लगभग बराबर। शहर होते हुए गए। जहां से पुल शुरू होता है वहीं पर गाड़ी सड़क किनारे ही खड़ी कर दी। रेती में पुल के नीचे -नीचे चलते हुए उस हिस्से की तरफ़ गए जो हिस्सा टूटा था।  पुल का टूटा हुआ हिस्सा नदी के पानी में धराशायी सा लेटा  था। क्या पता वह गाना भी गा रहा हो -'कर चले हम फ़िदा जान-ओ-तन साथियों, अब तुम्हारे हवाले ये जगह साथियों।' पुल के आसपास पक्षी तेज आवाज़ में चहचहाते हुए शायद पुल के बारे में ही चर्चा कर रहे थे। एक दूधिया अपने दूध के कनस्तर पानी में धोकर रेती में औंधाए रखकर गंगा स्नान कर रहा था। स्नान करके नदी से निकलते हुए एक बुजुर्ग को नदी किनारे निपटते देखकर भुनभुनाते हुए कहने लगा -' यह भी नही कि गंगाजी से ज़रा दूर होकर निपटें। एकदम किनारे ही गंदगी करने बैठ गए।' उसके भुनभुनाने के अन्दाज़ से लग रहा था कि उसकी मंशा केवल ख...

The Trolling Culture: A Digital Plague on Society

 The advent of social media has brought revolutionary changes in communication, enabling people to connect and share ideas globally. However, it has also given rise to a darker trend: trolling. Trolling culture, the act of provoking, insulting, or harassing individuals online for amusement or malice, has become a pervasive issue. Coupled with hate speech, it contributes to a toxic online environment with widespread societal repercussions.
