7 mistakes to avoid when optimizing your Instagram account for SEO

One of the unwritten rules of Instagram management is to create a cohesive feed. The posts you upload on the platform should be logical in terms of visual concept, timing, captions, and hashtags.

But consistency isn’t something that can be accomplished overnight. You need to take time and think through each caption, the relevance of tags, the whole grid layout style and posting frequency. To streamline this process and plan your Instagram posts and stories, you can use Combin Scheduler, a tool for Instagram content planning.

Instagram: Visual Social Media Cultures – Book Review

In Instagram: Visual Social Media Cultures, Tama Leaver, Tim Highfield and Crystal Abidin elaborate on why Instagram is more than just a social media platform: instead, it has become an icon that has altered understandings of visual social media cultures. By doing so, they focus on different aspects of Instagram, such as its aesthetics, cultures, ecologies and economics, supported with real-life examples and cases.

Instagram has tried to keep itself distinct from Facebook and other social platforms.

Web Tools #354 - React Tools, Image/Video Tools, Uncats

Web Tools Weekly

Issue #354 • April 30, 2020

>&campaign_id=02f2bef915&device=desktop&v=0.14" style="width: 100%;max-width: 600px;border: 0;height: auto;line-height: 100%;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;" width="600">

In previous tips I introduced a basic HTML Drag and Drop API example along with some things you can do with the dataTransfer() object. This tip will focus on the different events you can listen for during a drag operation.

There are 7 drag events that are supported across all modern browsers. They are:

  • dragstart - A dragging operation begins (on dragged item)
  • drag - A drag operation is in process (on dragged item)
  • dragenter - A dragged item enters a valid drop target (on drop target)
  • dragover - A valid drop target is dragged over (on drop target)
  • dragleave - A dragged item leaves a valid drop target (on drop target)
  • drop - A dragged item is dropped on a valid drop target (on drop target)
  • dragend - A drag operation ends (on dragged item)
The notes in parentheses next to each bullet point indicate where the event listener would be placed when listening for the event.

As usual, this is always more interesting with an interactive example, so here's a CodePen demo that illustrates all 7 drag events by printing each one on the page as the event occurs. Some events, of course, occur simultaneously. Also, in order to see the dragleave event, you have to 'leave' the drop target before entering it again to complete the drop.

The demo displays each message once but it should be noted that the drag and dragover events fire continuously while the item is dragged or while the drop target is being dragged over. The rest of the events occur one time each then won't occur again until another drag operation is initiated, ended, or another drop target is accessed, etc.

It should also be noted that MDN's article that lists the different events also lists a dragexit event that has some browser support. But it's recommended to use the dragleave event (which is apparently the equivalent) instead.

If you're a big Seinfeld fan like I am, you'll love this: Seinfeld Adventure. Right now it's just a pitch for a game. I seriously doubt Jerry and his producers will approve this, but it's pretty cool to see what it would be like to play "a game about nothing".
