A new digital future for radio
Radio, considered to be a traditional medium, is the medium which has the most difficulty in renewing itself. With the arrival of podcasts in the media sphere, radio had to find a strategy to compete with it. That's why in France, the radio introduced the technology "DAB +", also called "Digital Audio Broadcast". This makes it possible to offer quality sound to listeners, directly on their radios. The same quality found in podcasts. For more information on this technology, see the full Les Echos article.

Answering might now be the big thing in the podcast field
We know it very well: the world of podcasting is becoming more and more popular and occupies an important place in marketing. Now that this medium has been around for a little while, it must start to renew itself and find ways to innovate. Beyond the Screenplay podcast hosts Vince Major and Michael Tucker came up with the idea. They incorporate polls directly into their podcast. This is a segment of their podcast that they say works very well with their listeners. For more information on this practice, see The Verge article.

Content Creation: New feature for Canva
If you or your team are into content creation, you are sure to know the Canva tool. It's an easy to use visual creation tool. Recently, they announced the arrival of a new feature: Creation and editing of videos! The challenge for the platform will obviously be to make creating videos as easy as creating visuals. That's why they're going to offer video templates as well as a library full of clips to use. Much like their library of images, some clips will be free, others will be for a small amount!

A new feature for Instagram: a practice mode for live videos!
A major breakthrough for users of live videos on Instagram: there is now the option to go live in "practice" mode! This allows users to check their connection, lighting, sound, and anything to do with live quality. This is in place to avoid the first few minutes of live video which is usually spent making sure everything is working and is fun to watch. Additionally, Instagram also announced that it will be possible to schedule live videos ahead of time, so subscribers know ahead of time! For more information on these new features, see The Next Web article.
