Reels Clash B/W Instagram & TikTok

 

 

Instagram CEO recently said: "We are no longer photo-sharing app". Which literally means Instagram wants its users to post more short video type of content - REELS. Tiktok is growing super fast and Instagram is determined to win this battle.

  That's why they will invest $1bln in rewardings for reels creators next years. My opinion that it's just a matter of time when we all start sharing short video posts instead of photo posts


Although TikTok has only existed globally for two years, it has already become a cultural staple for Gen Z. TikTok has more than 2 billion downloads and it has all but solidified its place as a social media titan. It outperforms a number of US based apps that attract younger audiences — including Instagram. In late 2019, TikTok dominated in downloads, beating Instagram by over 238 million users. It was the only app within Sensor Tower’s top five that wasn’t owned by Facebook.


At the end of May, TikTok announced a Creative Learning Fund for teachers on the platform. The fund launched with $50 million dollars, but this pales in comparison to its Creator Fund. The TikTok Creator Fund has launched with $200 million dollars and is open to all creators over 18 years of age, regardless of profession or video content (provided that it aligns with TikTok’s community guidelines). The fund is set to launch this August in the US.

With this fund, TikTok creators that are accepted into the program will receive regular payments over the course of a year. The criteria for acceptance into the program has yet to be released nor have specifics such when this program will expand globally or how much a single creator can expect to earn.

Oil Storage Terminals: The Strategic Backbone of Global Energy Trade

 Oil storage terminals are critical infrastructure within the global energy ecosystem, serving as the foundation for oil logistics, strategic trade, and energy security. These facilities go far beyond functioning as mere warehouses for crude oil or refined products—they are sophisticated, multifunctional hubs that support international trade flows, offer stability during periods of market volatility, and empower nations and businesses with strategic flexibility in energy management, processing, and distribution. The strategic importance of these terminals lies in their ability to balance supply and demand, particularly during geopolitical disruptions, natural calamities, or seasonal consumption shifts. Countries with robust terminal infrastructure can stockpile reserves, safeguarding against global oil shocks and reducing their vulnerability to supply chain interruptions. Moreover, terminals provide vital commercial opportunities—traders and refiners can buy oil at lower prices, st...

Green Gender Green

In the absence of appropriate social policies, the green economy may exacerbate existing gender inequities to the detriment of overall sustainability. In the developing world, women are often the primary agricultural producers. As farmers, entrepreneurs, producers, consumers and household managers, women are key for implementing low-carbon strategies – and thus important agents of change. Structural gender inequality needs to be addressed to assure the well-being of women, the successful transition to a green economy and the achievement of sustainable development . Market-based approaches that emphasize economic growth have tended to exploit and marginalize women in both developed and developing countries in their roles as workers, consumers and citizens. For green growth strategies to succeed, equity issues must be fully addressed.The green economy offers a possibility for a more equitable sharing of revenue between men and women, capital and labour, and rich and poor ...
