The media that I obsessed over this week was narwhal. Narwhal is an application on my iPhone that is a platform for reddit. The reason that I use this instead of the normal reddit app is because of the simplicity and easy access to every function that reddit offers. I may be bias because I hold the phone with my right hand, but the app is very user friendly for right handed people who just want one hand on there phone. Using my thumb I can scroll, up vote, down vote, save, and search without really reaching with my thumb or needing extra effort. For an app like reddit where it is basically just a sea of information to get lost into, it’s very key yo make the user experience very seamless. Even one extra button to click or poorly placed function can negatively effect how much time you put into your redditing. I find myself scrolling through reddit way more on my phone than the desktop interface and I believe it’s simply because of the interface of narwhal. Narwhal sucks you in and then when you realize you’ve been reading for a half hour you snap out of it and realize what you’ve been doing
Up vote
Just pull a smidge farther for down vote
