WEEKLY 1
DERIVE THROUGH THE WEB
Use of ordered lists to convey ideas - the buzzfeed method of using lists to quickly present a group of information that relates to each other and is easily digestible. Each component of the list is often short or brief in order to retain attention over a long time.
This website structures articles around photographs and with very brief descriptions. There is very little overarching point to be made here besides enjoying the photography. Often there is not much to say in describing and photographs do a better job of conveying ideas.
This website uses both lists of notes as well as lists of photographs. There is an overall theme to most lists on this one. Much the same as the first website, order means very little.This website relies heavily on long narrative instead of brief descriptions. While there is an overall idea, each stories can also stand independently.
This website includes a combination of both limited words with extensive pictures of lists as well as step by step articles with lots of text. There are more lists on this website that rely on order—often directions, instructions, or summaries/dates.
Similar to didyouseethis.net, there is equal use between graphics, photography and text narration in lists and articles. Again, many of the components of each can stand alone.
In addition to this connection of what I am referring to as the buzzfeed method, each of these websites prompted me with an initial pop-up to either subscribe to the website and/or newsletter or direct me to a specific event on their website.
