Short video content has gained massive attention in recent years. Especially because short-form videos are now becoming easier to produce. Content creators can test out new ideas and execute them faster than they would with long-form content. Internet accessibility as well as affordable smartphones have also pushed more content creators online. Another reason is that humans’ attention span has reduced tremendously. This can be partly attributed to technological conveniences and hectic lifestyles where individuals have little to no time. Thankfully it’s not all bad. Shorter content means we can learn and laugh faster without wasting too much time. So if you enjoy short-form content, let’s talk about Safaricom, YouTube and cheap data bundles.
