Make a simple personal site with Adobe Portfolio

There’s a growing need particularly for those in the creative field to have a personal website or portfolio online to showcase your work. If coding a site is too daunting for you, Adobe is offering a new service called Portfolio through its Creative Cloud suite. This new feature will let you create your own simple site, much like what you can do with the likes of Squarespace. You can use an existing layout and then tweak or change the design as you see fit. The designs can accommodate the varying screen sizes of the different gadgets you use. It’ll also let you personalize your URL and password-protect certain pages. And yes, you also get access to website analytics. To use portfolio, you’ll need to have a Creative Cloud subscription plan.

As its name suggests, it just lets you record snaps and play these in reverse. Now, Android users finally get to play around with this filter. Just swipe right after recording a video until you stumble on the three reverse arrows to create your own reverse videos. Update your Snapchat app to the latest version to get to play around with this.
