Why Vlog when we can Blog?

 

  1. “The scariest moment is always just before you start.”
    —Stephen King

  2. Blog is short for 'weblog,' which means logging into the web. People use blogs to share personal thoughts and experiences with a small audience. A vlog is a video blog or video log where you share information, facts, stories, and opinions through video instead of written texts.
  3. The most obvious difference between them, of course, is the format.
  4. The visual format of vlogs lets us showcase our thoughts, personalities, expressions, and voices, making the content more dynamic. Writing a blog and watching a vlog is the same as reading a book and watching a movie. Many prefer the latter as it doesn't require the extra labor of imagining. In a world where even 60 seconds is too long, people prefer mini vlogs over full-length vlogs and forget about reading blogs.
  5. Though vlogs are more dynamic, provides a personal connection, visually appeals to the audiences, and are social media friendly.
  6. Vlogging is time-consuming, creating quality vlogs can take a lot of time and energy and requires a lot of upfront investment in a good camera, lighting, and editing software. They often run into technical issues.
  7. Many people may feel uncomfortable sharing their personal lives with a broad audience and often face criticism, bullying, and harassment.
  8. One of the most persistent challenges Vloggers face is to come up with evergreen, engaging ideas.
  9. Blogging on the other hand, though has its own pros and cons, it has more pros than cons.
  10. It improves personal development like creativity, writing skills, and critical thinking. It builds confidence, self-expression, and a personal brand.
  11. We don't require any expensive gadgets to get started. We can also start with a Galaxy M11. Nobody has to be self-aware of oneself. Research has shown that bloggers have better mental health than vloggers, as they are less prone to online bullying and harassment. 
  12. One can freely express their thoughts and views whilst keeping their privacy intact.
  13. Both platforms provide a wide range of scope for self-expression we should just choose which works the best for us.

The 13th floor

Fear is the path to the dark side. I stood staring at the old ,wicked dilapidated building as a thin,malnourished wicked looking old man who seemed to be as old as the wicked old  building approached me .His steps slow his eyes fixated on me. "Don't go in there sir" he whispered. How do I not go in there? I have to deliver 13 boxes of pizza in the 13th floor and damn they were paying hefty for it. I ignored the old man as I set my foot into the old creeking elevator and pressed the button to the 13th floor.As soon as it reached the floor it creaked open .I  set my foot out and it seemed I had entered an entirely different world the floor had exactly 13 rooms none of them having a single opening.It stretched from nothingness to nothingness I turned around to leave as my sixth sense told me to but as I turned around  the hair on my back stood up because it seemed as if there was never an elevator to begin with. Darkness consumed me and my surrounding as the only source of l...

MAHAAMRUT: Human Placental Extract A Protective Shield From Our Mother.

According to WHO, the placenta as a human tissue is a pathological as well as hazardous health-care waste that must be handled carefully.  Soon after birth, it becomes serious medical waste capable of harboring and transmitting viral particles, and bacteria. It could become a good culture medium for these organisms if not disposed of properly, hence, a potential health and environmental hazard. The placenta plays a key role in supplying oxygen and nutrients, eliminating waste products, and providing  strong endocrine support for pregnancy through hormonal secretions and immunological functions that protect the developing embryo. This project aims at converting this biomedical waste product into life saving source by proper preservation and processing of the human placenta to isolate peptides, hormones, antibodies and most important of them all stem cells. The placental extract serves as a source of protein and hormones and contains several biologically active substances that e...

Mental Health: Why it is important for students?

 Mental Health is often linked to an invisible backpack that we all carry. Sometimes, the bag feels light, but other times it feels unbearably heavy. But what we must keep in mind is that we are not alone in this journey, but, rather part of a larger community. Mental health is a topic often kept in the shadows, but it is necessary for our overall well-being. Mental health affects everyone, regardless of age, gender, caste, religion, or background. According to research conducted by the National Alliance On Mental Illness (NAMI), it was found that every one in four students is affected by diagnosable mental illness. The unrealistic expectations for academic performance, peer pressure, bullying, social status, the sense of inferiority that seeps in when we see others doing well-off than us. The over-the-top expectations we have of ourselves, the responsibility we take upon ourselves to fulfill our own dreams, our parent's dreams, to give them the life they deserve. The dread of not ...
