Recently, we had posted about the giraffes that appeared on Facebook. The cute quadruped would probably not be the only weird thing you will see on the popular social networking site. A new fashion has been observed lately and we will soon see it in Greece if you have not already seen it. A kind of computer-generated comic began appearing in the timeline of Facebook members. No, it's not a virus or malicious prank, though it can sometimes be quite annoying as we will see below.
All are due to an application called Bitstrips.
Released earlier this year, and Bitstrips έχει ήδη γίνει μια από τις πρώτες σε λήψη εφαρμογή για τα Android. Last weekteam and hit number 1 in the App Store for the iPhone. The animations he creates have proven to be so popular that the application occasionally crashes due to unexpected traffic. As of Wednesday morning, the company's servers were so overloaded that its website was inaccessible.
"We've been overwhelmed by the overwhelming response and are currently working feverishly to get everything up and running," Bitstrips CEO Jacob Blackstock told the Huffington Post in a message email.
The reason behind the rise of Facebook comics can be an updated version of an app that took place in October that lets amateur cartoonists share their comic books more easily on the social network. Bitstrips has more than 10 million monthly users, according to Facebook.
What exactly does Bitstrips do? The application allows you to make a picture of yourself in comics. You can do the same with your friends' avatars.
Once you have created your Bitstrips, you are given three options: You can make a "status comic" that shows your mood or what you do. You can also make a "friend comic," where you can put your avatar along with a friend's avatar. Finally you can create a "greeting card" (greeting card) for any occasion.
