Knowledge has come a long way since the advent of the internet. In the time before broadband internet, most information flow was delayed by gatekeepers. Newspapers decided what to print, editors decided what stories were most interesting, publishers decided what books were worthy of being released, and television reporting was (and continues) to be controlled by corporate interest. When the internet became a widespread resource, this old system of information flow was turned on its head.

However, the internet is not perfect. Not even close to perfect. In many parts of the world, governments have complete censorship over what the public sees. In the United States, internet service providers (ISPs) have the final say over what kind of information you look for and what type of information you transfer. This problem is only exacerbated with the death of net neutrality, a topic worth discussing another time. Search engines, such as Google, have full control over your search results. Simply put, Google’s search algorithms ultimately focus on providing monetary value, rather than the most accurate information.

Thankfully, progress continues to march forward with VAPR. VAPR is a direct peer to peer sharing network. Users on the VAPR network are connected together as contributors to an encyclopedia-like knowledge base. Community members can interact on a social platform where they collaborate, share content, gain followers, and potentially build up a customer base. VAPR connects users across all walks of life through innovative solutions, including augmented reality, voice search, visual search, and more. Using high-tech image recognition technology, VAPR visual search gives users a way to discover virtually any type of information for whatever image they scan.

Using the power of the NASGO blockchain, VAPR envisions an opportunity for everyone using the platform to earn coins for creating and sharing content, videos, and movies. Thanks to NASGO technology, a seemingly infinite amount of people can interact together. An immediate use-case may spring to mind: advertising. Through the VAPR network, advertisers may share content on the VAPR platform to users. Instead of using keywords, they market using images with VAPR’s visual search engine.

VAPR provides a unique opportunity for customers interested in visual search, advertisers interested in marketing to future-oriented users, and technologists interested in a world where information flow is not controlled by a few companies, but rather, a network of users. Take a leap into the future with VAPR and NASGO here:
