Personal collective of ideas, thoughts and notes
If there has been one email/newsletter I am excited to receive monthly, its from a company called Springwise. They share innovative and creative ideas from around the world. It’s a great resource to find inspiration or follow emerging trends which you are interested in. A prime example: Snapchat 🙂
HighlighTV was developed to address the market of non-main stream sports highlights and videos on the Apple TV platform. I was personally tired of searching for new, exciting and interesting videos by opening blogs, magazines and websites on a daily basis. RSS helped me considerably but there was a lack of connection between my RSS reader (Feedly) and my Apple TV to watch the content when I had the free time.
It seems there is this disconnect between me exploring and finding content, and when I subsequently want to consume it. I visit around 4 – 6 websites daily to catch up on news and events and I often find content which I would like watch or read, but seldomly have the time right then and then to do it. Facebook has “Save for later”, Feedly has “”, Twitter, I store bookmarks of this type of content in Evernote, etc. all these main stream apps are aware of the problem, but as usual, there is no central consolidated way to quickly find something, and dependent on the device I am on, give me the option to consume it. The tagline for HighlighTV is:
A designer is at once an engineer who imagines the object and determines its feasibility, an entrepreneur who is able to understand his clients’ business objectives, and an artist who creates an expressive and desirable aesthetic
