One of our favorite parts of each new year is the trend forecast called Pinterest Predicts. This year, expect some bold new aesthetics and fads everywhere from social media to the streets. Here are a few that caught our eye: 🍒 Cherry Coded: the color, the fruit, the vibes 🏰 Castlecore: a medieval moment 🎀 Dolled Up: don't put those bows away just yet 🥒 Pickle Fix: absolutely dill-icious Which trend did you find most intriguing? https://lnkd.in/eF9BpyNa

In *case* you didn't know, naming conventions have names of their own! Here's a quick rundown of some of the most commonly used: 🐫 CamelCase: The first letter of each word is capitalized with no spaces between words 🍢 kebab-case: The words are separated by dashes 🐍 snake_case: The words are separated by an underscore. Fun fact: Several of our clients' names are actually in CamelCase, including TreesCharlotte, DreamKey Partners, and McCall Farms!

It's no surprise that social media platforms prefer to keep users on their apps for as long as possible. So, then, where do these platforms stand on external links that cause users to tap away? This deep dive explores, platform-by-platform, what each app's stance is – and whether or not your content is penalized for using such links. https://lnkd.in/eVNDWcZy

We've all seen the new holiday The Coca-Cola Company ad by now, right? Made exclusively using AI, the brand's remake of their 1995 commercial, "Holidays Are Coming," fell flat. Some considered it "soulless," while others picked apart its technical shortcomings. It certainly does lack the warmth that their audience has come to expect in holiday seasons past. What do you think about this use of generative AI?
The Holiday Magic is coming.
