Outside of communication apps, it is one of my most used applications. I open it about a dozen times a day, and like a few dozen photos daily, as I sift through lives of 333 people. Many are people I have never met, but they take me to magical, faraway places and I like that. I leave comments and when I have to spend a day away from it, I feel that my day was a little less interesting…In three years, I have shared about 1490 photos and have managed to convince 19,155 people that my photos are worth their time. I have shared moments of joy and sadness. Of my old home and new home. I blend moments of my daily mundane life with magical experiences I am blessed with. Sometimes I take news photos and share then too, but in reality my Instagram feed has become a place for self reflection, a chance to just find a slice of emotion and share it with others.
I still find myself in love with Instagram and its truly social platform. More here at GigaOM.
With all the social communications apps out there, I never know which one is most useful, but I have to admit I’ve got a love for photos and looking at them is certainly a whole lot more interesting than tweets about nothing 🙂
Haha! Me too! 🙂 I rarely use Snapchat and don’t have a Twitter but I make up for it by my use of IG.
