“Technique is much more important than tools , ” he says. “A lot of people know the tools, but few people know how to use them well. And when a tool doesn’t work, how can you possibly find the answer? Through practice and by drawing on all your accumulated knowledge, you start to see clues and paths that you never would have seen before.”

Kassab is now using what he learned to train other guatemala cell phone number list journalists in Egypt and the Middle East. for journalists in the region to verify videos and highlight inconsistencies that can sometimes appear in images that circulate with false information.

“There is a real spirit of collaboration and mutual assistance with Quiztime ,” he says. “I have learned so much by interacting with the quizmasters and regular players, who are very generous in sharing their knowledge.”

Polish journalist Beata Biel is another regular, who has noticed that with Quiztime there is rarely just one path to the answer.

“There was one quiz where I did a pretty surprising keyword search , ‘ rock that looks like an elephant’s rear end ,’ and I got a better result than players who used more elegant queries like ‘rock with a crack,’” Biel said. “And in other cases, I found the answer using keyword searches while others found it using reverse image search. So I find it really interesting to see how other people approach things.”
