Are we using smartphones more than we need to? - The darkside of our smartphones

Image
                  As a precious gift of 21st century's technology, smartphones fill a great part of our daily lives. Our routine is now linked with them. Ashamed to say but we are in their custody now. Every time I unlock my phone, the first thing that comes to my mind is " What brought me to unlock this phone ? " and mostly the answer is " nothing " . If the answer is " something " sometimes, than that "something"  is no other than checking messages, notifications, and statistics of my social medias. It's not that every time I unlock my phone there is no logical reason. I often use it to have important communications,  to Google out my doubt or to solve my curiosity about something but after sometime that ghost of my phone takes me under it's control. So here's a question " Why are we checking our smartphone ever now and then just to find nothing (rarely something) new? or Why we remain hooked up with our smart...

Why celebrities followers rise suddenly after their death?

Image
Few weeks ago on 29 April 2020, Indian actor Irfan khan died. He had few lakhs of followers on Instagram but after his death, rise in number of his Instagram followers was significant. Same thing happened when another actor Sushant Singh Rajput died on 14 June 2020. He had about nine and a half million followers on Instagram but about a million followers increased in less than 6 hours of his death. After these incidents, many people posted before-after followers comparison on social media questioning why this happens almost every time? So here is the answer of this question from the point of view of a social media analyst. First of all, how someone's followers or subscribers rise?

The reality of coffin dance meme!

Image
From past few weeks, you might have seen a meme in your social media where someone meets an accident and few African guys dance in a rock music carrying a coffin. This meme has provided a bit humour to our busy day but have you ever wondered who are those guys and why are they dancing with a coffin in somebody's funeral. Their story is very interesting. Lets breakdown the meme with some facts. Before knowing who those guys are and why are they dancing in someone's funeral, I would like to tell you some unknown facts about the meme. Many of you think that the dance and music used in meme are from same album & many of you even google for  the full version of the song. But you are wrong here. The dance and the music are totally different. I mean, dance and music are taken from two different sources. The dance video is taken from a BBC documentary where those African guys are featured dancing in their own band music in a funeral. All the clips used in memes are taken...

The smartphone nowadays have a cut-out at the top bezle which is called notch. First introduced by Sharp , the notch got popular as the release of iPhone X in September 2018. Following the trend of Apple, other smartphone manufacturers including the tech giant Samsung implemented this design. Some of them modified it's shape to avoid being said "Copied" which gave birth to dew drop & punch hole but the concept was the same; squiz front camera and other stuff in a little space and claim it as innovation. But now in 2020, the popular notch has started fading. The tech conscious users are now having questions like: Is the notch disappearing ? , How will the notch go? or What technology will take over the notch? The answer to the first question: Yes, the notch is disappearing. The smartphone you will be using in 2021 will have no notch at all. The day will come soon when we will have complete bezzle less display and be sure that it will have screens in more than two s...
