TikTok, the world’s most popular website, now lets people upload videos up to ten minutes long.
Most people want to spend about five minutes at a poster.
So if you couldn’t walk through your poster in one TikTok video, you’re talking too much. Way too much. You’ve either:
A collection of notable posters (and a few presenters) and every known book devoted to academic conference posters.
Academic conference posters are often ugly, with tiny text, confusing layouts, and dubious colour schemes. This blog and book is about making posters informative and beautiful.
This blog usually updates on Thursdays.
Not the viral video. That’s #BetterPoster (singular) on social media.
