Instagram...anyone using it?
 
Just checked it out for the first time today and think its pretty cool. Wondering if anyone else uses it.

I started using it in early December, I like it. I haven't used it in a while (overseas).

CRCRFT78 12-05-2012 12:00 PM

Instagram is a free photo-sharing program and social network that was launched in October 2010. The service enables users to take a photo, apply a digital filter to it, and then share it with other Instagram users they are connected to on the social network as well as on a variety of social networking services.[3] As of September 2012, Instagram had 100 million registered users.[4] A distinctive feature is that it confines photos to a square shape, similar to Kodak Instamatic and Polaroid images, in contrast to the 4:3 aspect ratio typically used by mobile device cameras.

I'm using it and love it. It's sort of like Twitter, Facebook and stuff where you can follow people, but you have the ability to instanly post pics. Hence the name "Insta=Instant; Gram=pics." You can "Like it" and comment and type responses on people's pics.

I use it. Love it

So a person could use it to post long overdue build thread updates?

I haven't read all the details, but Instagram has now announced they have the right to sell your pictures.

Guess I won't be bothering to set up an account after all.

After seeing a TV report on their privacy policy changes which basically gives them ownership and the right to sell your property and information.............how good is it?

Is it good enough to give up your rights without any form of revenue sharing?

phillym5 12-20-2012 06:50 PM

They might have backed out of that...

But just incase there is another APP called Pheed that we all started using. Its the same as Instagram..... but this can upload video too.

Who knows if everyone ends up making the switch or not.

CRCRFT78 09-19-2013 08:47 PM

Its funny when I first brought this up some of you didn't want any part of it but I see more and more of you guys popping up there.

Code510 09-20-2013 09:42 AM

I use it. Not a ton, but I try to post every now and then.

I just went through and followed all of you.

Instagram was bought by Facebook for a cool $BILLION last year. :waveflag:

It may make sense for the business owners but I just never really connected with the whole Facebook thing.

Don't ya just love kids.....



I have a 23 and 26 year old -- and I've heard all of that before. It's why I never wanted to buy Facebook stock -- because the kids are so fickle! As soon as the old folks get on it -- they're gone!

Chassisworks 09-25-2013 03:41 PM

I have a personal account although I mostly post stuff related to Chassisworks. We dont' have a company account set up right now. I just don't have time between the forums, the three Facebook pages (CAC - TCP - KP), answering emails and the odd phone call.

Anyway, this is my account. http://instagram.com/pikeycarl#

If anyone out there is running our components and uses hashtags, these are what I use that relate to our product lines: #chassisworks #totalcontrolproducts #varishock #fab9 #kpcomponents #cdsdrive

I currently follow EBMC and Recovery Room. Not sure if anyone else I follow is here on the forum.

@jeffrichied

Love it. Quick and easy. Don't need photobucket and the link to post pics.

Can get lost for hours.

Chassisworks 10-15-2013 04:46 PM

Here's a few from my feed. The image quality is a bit wonky when they're blown up to larger than a cell phone screen. Most of these end up on our Facebook page too, but not all of them. And vice versa.
