Article has become a dying breed?

We want to back a step to go in time for a few minutes:

Minecraft Alpha or even connected was back in its infancy, everything new, was fascinating, and well, a little blocky. If updates broke news with the score Friday, or when a new mod, which repair Apple which helped falls or leaf decay it was huge news in the small community of users. That extent Crafthub was this culmination of breaking news and updates with all Minecraft related.

Was the modding community "flowering at the same time own. also in its Little, what we had was either small tweaks to the game, or some large conceptual ideas like Risugamis great MOD loader, 303 new arrow range mod, or DrZhark's mo' creatures mod. I tried to do what she had done most of them at the time and that was to have an index of the latest and most popular MODs at that time.

But there's something you can take from this: that was about three years ago.

I haven't written articles for 2011, and I would say since then things quite simply relating to how we got our messages. Three years ago, the best hope for getting the latest news for Minecraft was to try and follow notch's blog, or find out about the news or information from other sources such as E.g. Crafthub. Reddit the popularity has help in the expansion of the range of users, for example the information quickly and reliably with the masses supported parts. Mojang also often participated with its ever-growing community, has / r / Minecraft, retrieve information such as suggestions or even a mistake (and really, people have some strange way finding bugs, which would never even!)

What I'm getting is that the times are changing rapidly and so are the ways that we communicate with all others on the Internet. For me and my connection from friends seem semi-large articles almost as a kind of endangered species.

One could argue against this saying the popular sites, asKotaku, The HuffingtonPost, or PCgamerare also in their own terms, and I agree with you on that. But I comes up the majority of the information that a daily basis to collect videos online as written articles, I've read. This can be, that I am a Visual learner, but about 65% of the population of the United States are also in the same situation like me. Popularity of "Let's play" videos such as have risen in the last three years. It is well accepted, that of a video, information collected is easier to absorb and understand, but also less time consuming on our busy lives. Perhaps this decrease relates only to some users as watching a video about a cool Redstone machine or concept is more visually appealing than reading about it with pictures. Both work but, from the point of view of the content how much time you have on hand and available personnel or resources depends to the theme, producers do it. While writing articles is time consuming, a video capture and playback to produce can take longer. I could go on and on about these comparisons, but I hope you get the jist.

Can like these days behind popular media article, but not yet count themselves! It is still a well written article can to convey the point as well as a video, you have the right person behind the keyboard.


This opinion on the basis of article reflects not on Crafthub as a whole, rather the own judgments and beliefs.
