Fast Laughs, the new function of Netflix

Fast Laughs

The modern life is fast and frenetic. What we need is something fast, compact and minimal. As much in the real life as in the digital one. That’s why TikTok had this big success. And with it all the ones that tried to imitate it, like Instagram, with the Reels. Now to try to do it it’s Netflix, with Fast Laughs.

The digital life few seconds at once

TikTok revolutionazed the digital world and, especially, the one of the social networks. With the birth of the social networks it was birth even a new way to “stalking” the people. Obviusly we aren’t talking about comminting a crime, but only about a little bit of innocent gossip.

With the advent of Facebook meet a person, or try to find out something about him, meant look for him on the social network. But to do it, often it wasn’t so easy. We had to scan all the common friends, scroll the pages that he liked, even because sometimes the users don’t even have their real name.

Hours and hours on Facebook to scan every detail of the life of the others. Today, after a decade and a half of social network, the digital world changed. Today we live few seconds at once. The time of a video on TikTok, so.

And it was like that that TikTok completely revolutionized the social world. Scrolling between thousands of videos, that repeat forever. However in this “endless” we can make a jump of only few minutes, because we only need few seconds to enter in the lifes of the others.

And this new way to live the digital life captured everyone. Even Netflix that, in reality, isn’t a social network. But, it seems, that it wants to be.

Netflix

Netflix is launching Fast Laughs, but before of it it’s the most famous and used platform of streaming of the world. It’s especially famous for the many Tv Series that we can find in it, many of them Netflix originals.

Instead to fail, like all the others, Netflix became a world phenomena, becoming the first service of streaming online on demand, available through subscription.
