my notes ( ? )
Text takes more thought and time. Writing is an inherently vulnerable act... numerous websites... demonstrate that long form writing can and does succeed on the internet... If text is to survive on the internet, sustainable structures need to be implemented to support it ...
The next step is to have publishing and blogging platforms introduce “medium form” structures... under 2500 characters, can be read under 5 minutes, and designed with constraints for brevity...
The future of text is going to be text+ (text + multimedia e.g. photos, videos, gifs... In a mobile first world coupled with our shrinking attention span, readers and users want text+ for a faster, more immersive, gratifying consumption experience.
