The case of the disappearing content

Why your brilliant message might be vanishing — and how to make it unforgettable

💭 The scanner’s secret

Back in 1997, researchers at the Nielsen Norman Group discovered something fascinating:

🔍 Only 16% of people actually read web content word-by-word.
📉 The rest? They scanned.

That was before smartphones, before infinite feeds, and definitely before ChatGPT.

Now?

We’re all professional scanners.
Scrolling. Skimming. Side-eyeing.

And unless a message visually pulls us in —
it just floats past.

🤔 So why does this matter?

Because content is multiplying.
And attention is evaporating.

What used to work — doesn’t.
What used to land — vanishes.

The problem isn’t bad content.
It’s invisible content.

And the fix isn’t louder headlines or longer posts.
It’s visual gravity.

It’s design that earns the pause.
It’s storytelling that slips through the noise.
It’s humour, soul, and art — served in a single scroll.

🎨 So… what does that look like?

Swipe through this short visual story.
It unpacks why so many messages miss their mark —
and how to make yours irresistible.

There’s a quiet joy in noticing the small, often-overlooked things—

a half-smile, a clever turn of phrase, a story told in a single line.

That’s the space I live in with Akibuki: turning ideas into hand-drawn stories that feel both ancient and alive, playful yet thoughtful.

Born in Bengal, shaped by the world, I’ve been a journalist, editor, and storyteller in many forms. Akibuki is where all those threads meet—

blending the wit of an old friend with the curiosity of a child,

to make things you can smile at, think about, and carry with you.

When you’re ready to see your story sketched in its own light,

I’d love to draw it into the world with you.
