Poetry is trending. Its popularity has recently increased particularly among younger generations. Owing to the fact, a new social platform called Poetizer is becoming successful and known globally. It was launched two years ago at the occasion of the UNESCO World Poetry Day which is celebrated on 21 of March. Originally, Poetizer started as a mobile app suitable for iOs and Android system and lately it has expanded to a website. It allows its users to share their poems with people from all around the world.
“Poetizer is creating a space for poetry lovers across the globe that share the same desires and values, like freedom of speech, authenticity, and the love of poetry as a form of self-expression. We believe that the platform will interest even those who don't write poetry themselves,” says the CO-founder and managing director Lukáš Sedláček from Prague. „On Poetizer, people can create an account, save drafts, publish finished poems and share them with the world. Besides a news feed with new posts and the option to create poem collections, there are features that allow users to choose anonymity, edit text with great detail, and ask other users for feedback.“ Poetizer operates in more than 120 countries so far and has already published more than 120 000 poems.
