| Marqueed.com – Online Image Collaboration Made Easy Posted: 19 Aug 2012 02:47 AM PDT Marqueed.com launched in March of 2012 with the mission of offering an easy and intuitive online tool for the discussion and collaboration of shared image files. Marqueed is rapidly growing its user base and is currently available as a web app via Marqueed.com and the Google Chrome Store. An iPad app is planned for release in the coming months.
Marqueed is founded by John and Zerna Karian, who have worked extensively in graphic design, animation, photography and image retouching. Like many of their professional peers, they have firsthand experience with the perils of accurately and efficiently communicating feedback with a creative team. Marqueed allows users to securely access shared image files, discuss and create annotations in real time, thereby increasing both productivity and accuracy.
While Marqueed is an incredibly powerful communication tool for designers, its users have quickly put the app to use in many other real life applications. A family used Marqueed as a tool to help redecorate their daughterʼs room at home. They used the app to collaborate with an interior designer: incorporating blueprints of the room, pictures of its current layout and collaboratively gathered catalog images. They were able to then make notes, compare potential options and ultimately come together to deliver a vision that appealed to everyone involved. In short, the possibilities with Marqueed are nearly endless. For more information, please contact zerna@marqueed.copm or visit Marqueed.com.

| New Publishing Tool from Twitter Takes Cues from Tumblr, Pinterest, Reddit and Digg Posted: 19 Aug 2012 02:18 AM PDT By adopting some cue sticks from Tumblr, Reddit, Pinterest, and Digg, the founders of Twitter formed Medium, a latest sort of publishing platform. Medium is fundamentally is a blogging service, even though exactly at the moment it is merely open to a selected few authors. The posts are structured into “accumulations” that apply diverse designs reckoning on the content. One segment, “The Writer’s Room,” seems to be prepared by Emergence creator Steven Johnson and is a simple text article outline, while others like “Been There and Loved That.” is an image-driven page that appears evenly like Pinterest and is created by a developer at the company.
The posts in every compilation aren’t prearranged chronologically. As an alternative, Medium utilizes a Reddit- and Digg-style up voting trait that allows visitors to rate each item, with the maximum-rated content making it to the top of the mound to guarantee better view. At present anybody can sign in–by means of Twitter, obviously–to upvote and provide feedback, but providers are even now on an invite-only basis.
Collections may be allowed as open to everyone, or it can remain blocked to simply a few writers. Williams while he is introducing the services in a blog states that. “Lots of services have successfully lowered the bar for sharing information, but there's been less progress toward raising the quality of what's produced.” Nevertheless he furthermore states that Medium is created so that many people can without difficulty add, but is is not clear as to what sort of controls the conservator of each segment has over what emerges in their collected works. The two-way printing tool assumes submitted content and groups it into connected collections, letting several people to look at and append to it.
That is exactly the objective of Medium, which assumes submitted content like text and photos and arranges connected items in collections that several people can view and append to it. As an alternative of being planned chronologically, posts receiving the maximum user rating will become visible at the top. Thus posting on Medium will be very graceful and effortless, and you can do so devoid of the trouble of becoming a blogger or worrying about increasing viewers. All posts are prearranged into “collections,” which are distinct based on the theme and a template and will be ranked as per visitors views.
