Top 10 Blogs for Authors

Top 10 Blogs for Authors | Sosiaalinen Media | Scoop.it
Serious writers, who have experienced some level of success, when probed, will reveal that they have done their homework.

 

They continuously read various magazines and blogs for authors, not just to help them improve their writing, but to ensure that they stay on top of the latest developments and opportunities.

 

Many of the opportunities that I’ve snagged were discovered only as a result of reading and interacting with others on various blogs. These are opportunities I never would’ve found, otherwise...

Create Easy Visually-Rich Data-Presentations with Piktochart

Create Easy Visually-Rich Data-Presentations with Piktochart | Sosiaalinen Media | Scoop.it

Ai Ching and Andrea Zaggia are the authors and founders of Piktochart a new presentation tool (pre-beta) which promises to deliver a new approach to creating data-rich and visually engaging slideshows and infographs.

Piktochart leverages a number of tools which include a) the Story Teller, b) the Chart Wizard and c) Visual Themes which facilitate tremendously the presenter work by guiding him/her in the process of submitting relevant data and information that will be then applied to an appropriate visual solution.

 

The idea is certainly very good, but the novice user may find himself a bit lost in editing and organizing the content inside existing templates the first time around. 

 

Given some more good, high-quality templates, and less leeway for the user to make mistales, Piktochart moves one step in the direction that many communication tools will be taking next: making as easy as possible for anyone to produce professionally-looking presentations without being a graphic designer.

Find out more and give it a spin: http://piktochart.com/

Cedarseed: Drawing Tutorials | Sosiaalinen Media | Scoop.it

These tutorials of mine began as guides and reference charts for illustrators, but many grew to be of general interest, and to date have been used in college-level courses ranging from 2d animation (in the US) to genetics (in Canada), as well as in a scientific exhibit on human emotion (in France).
Links are included for those that are available as books or as posters.

The demise of quality content on the web

The demise of quality content on the web | Sosiaalinen Media | Scoop.it

This a great blog post from Rian van der Merwe , describing the noise you can find on the web now, and especially content just created for SEO purposes or advertisers. As many, Rian is tired of it.

 

"I used to believe that if you write with passion and clarity about a topic you know well (or want to know more about), you will find and build an audience. I believed that maybe, if you’re smart about it, you could find a way for some part of that audience to pay you money to sustain whatever obsession drove you to self-publishing"

 

The Scoop.it team can't agree more with this vision...
