John Caples on Writing Headlines

Make PremierGal Your Go-to Creator For All Things Adobe Premier Pro
Kelsey, popularly known as PremierGal, has to be your go-to creator for learning Adobe Premier Pro! With about 438K YouTube followers and 16.7K Instagram followers, PremierGal's content will make you stop wondering about video effects.
From learning how to make split-screen videos to color grading — her videos are a treasure trove of learning. We made a video on her that you must absolutely watch. 👇
Meta Can Tell You If Your Video Will Go Viral
We can tell one thing, for sure: this feature will get us hooked! And it might, unfortunately, make us tweak our content for virality.
Meta has filed for a patent where tech will analyze your video and its quality to tell you whether it can go viral. This new tool will measure your video based on retention, and the retention prediction will be between excellent and poor.

What Your Favorite WordArt Says About You
Well, yes, we're talking about Windows WordArt! If you're a millennial, you've probably played around with it in school. But did you know your favorite WordArt can predict your personality? Lyla Maeve for It's Nice That wrote an excellent feature on this, and it was like talking a nostalgic ride.
Our favourite one said this about us: You loved a bit of tech, to the point where people called you a “geek” even if you weren’t rational and strategic enough to fully justify it.
What about you?
