Snackable content


Snackable content is website content that is designed to be easy for readers to consume and to share.

Companies with customer-facing websites often need to publish a constant supply of fresh content to drive site traffic and boost awareness of their brand. From a content marketing and brand awareness perspective, Web content must be snackable. With the overwhelming volume of information on the Web, if site visitors aren't intrigued enough by the content to read it and -- perhaps even more importantly -- share it with their social networks, then the content doesn't have much business value. Snackable content should help support the brand by sharing information about the industry or the company's story, not by pushing products. An important goal of snackable content is to tempt the reader to consume more content.

Snackable content tries to capture the attention of website visitors who are browsing and don't have the time or patience to consume long, text-heavy artices. Although detractors of snackable content maintain that it is dumbing down the Internet, proponents point out that it just makes sense to have the content fit the delivery channel -- and mobile is increasingly becoming the primary delivery channel. To make long-form articles more snackable, they can be broken down into smaller components. Responsive or adaptive website design can also help make content more snackable, as flexible website design makes content easier to view on smartphones and tablets.

Visual elements like infographics and photos play an important role in snackable content. Attention-grabbing headlines that use humor or ask questions are also useful, since they're a fast way to draw readers in. Readers have become accustomed to sensationalist headlines that aren't supported by high-quality content, however, so companies need to constantly evaluate their approach to headline writing, avoid gimmicks and make sure that the content backs up the headlines.

Understanding the Evolution: AI, ML, Deep Learning, and Gen AI

In the ever-evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), one of the most intriguing advancements is the emergence of General AI (Gen AI). To grasp its significance, it's essential to first distinguish between these interconnected but distinct technologies. AI, ML, and Deep Learning: The Building Blocks Artificial Intelligence refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions. Machine Learning, a subset of AI, empowers machines to learn from data and improve over time without explicit programming. Deep Learning, a specialized subset of ML, involves neural networks with many layers (hence "deep"), capable of learning intricate patterns from vast amounts of data. Enter General AI (Gen AI): Unraveling the Next Frontier Unlike traditional AI systems that excel in specific tasks (narrow AI), General AI aims to replicate human cognitive abilities across various domains.

Normalization of Database

Database Normalisation is a technique of organizing the data in the database. Normalization is a systematic approach of decomposing tables to eliminate data redundancy and undesirable characteristics like Insertion, Update and Deletion Anamolies. It is a multi-step process that puts data into tabular form by removing duplicated data from the relation tables. Normalization is used for mainly two purpose, Eliminating reduntant(useless) data. Ensuring data dependencies make sense i.e data is logically stored. Problem Without Normalization Without Normalization, it becomes difficult to handle and update the database, without facing data loss. Insertion, Updation and Deletion Anamolies are very frequent if Database is not Normalized. To understand these anomalies let us take an example of  Student  table.
