Fundamental Shift
Structured Content
What can you do with structured content?
We’ve created the
most efficient news
process, ever.
By updating news stories as
they evolve over time, Circa
eliminates the need to
constantly repeat background
information — a massive
inefficiency in news
This has allowed Circa to scale
content almost exponentially
over time without adding equal
resources

Infographics have
performed well on:
- Twitter
- Medium
- Reddit
- Tumblr
- Facebook
AJ+ stylized templates for efficiency
Twitter-optimized quote templates.
Even Al Jazeera Turk likes them!

The Debate I know You’re
Having in Your Mind
The Pull of Speed. The Push of Eventual Sameness
You can get fast access to a TON of readers via platforms.
Eventual Sameness
You can stand out by going “out of sync”
The upside: Anyone you convert is more valuable. They are
YOUR costumer. The downside, you won’t look as sleek.
There is no right/wrong answer. It’s YOUR answer.
Personal theory: Everything here is a pendulum swing.
Think SEO to SMO headlines

“Build a community for those who see your content not as
a passing interest, but as a core component of who they
are and how they define themselves.”
NOTE:
People don’t define themselves they way they used to.
MOBILE IS PLATFORM AND HARDWARE!!!
“Mobile experiences fill the gaps while we wait.
Nobody wants to wait while they wait.”

This cartoon is about to reach for his phone!
We interact with the device for all kinds of reasons
Actions like swiping - have a texture that is part of the
storytelling experience (Snowfall).
It adds a new dimension to the storytelling.
The reader doesn’t scan with their eyes - they can feel the story.
This will become more intense: geolocation, accelerometers,
gesture control, Augmented reality, etc.
Learn the vocabulary
Stick to the standards unless there’s a
compelling argument to create new UI elements
This is the start of platform Intelligence
Add the backdrop about where Video is being consumed
The Scale Feed
“Most of today’s media companies think they’re going to be scale feeds. But they won’t.”
The Social Feed Model: Universal Reach
While scale feeds will be the
digital successor to Pay TV
distribution, the spiritual
successor to the Pay TV feed
will be the social networks.
What’s more, social feeds like
Facebook and Snapchat
represent the feed in its most
potent iteration to date –
bundling together all forms of
content: personal and
impersonal, photo and video,
text and visual and audio,
ephemeral and evergreen, etc.
And while cable represented a
profound leap forward in
audience targetability, the social
feeds deliver unlimited audience
relevance; everything a viewer
sees is designed to capture,
engage, and retain their
attention specifically. Further
still, the viewer can go on to
discuss and share this content
from within the same very feed.
The social networks, in effect,
bundle content with the water
cooler itself – and to great
effect. As Ricky Van Veen
commented last year,
“Facebook is the Internet.”
