I am so not "getting" this Instagram thing / do you guys want to look at each others pictures?

I'd rather not know but it's my own fault for searching them out in the first place.

Can we start the igram backlash yet?

on public transportation in nyc, people are inevitably looking at either igram or fbook

I've said it elsewhere, but the new Instagram location feature is the best.

Here's the Reno Walmart, one of the nearest box stores to #burningman.

What's new about the location feature?

You couldn't search it before.

You could click a location if you saw it on a pic, but you couldn't query it.

way too many ads now :/

I haven't seen a single one yet

what? how

I see sponsored post ads, but some of the folks I follow on Instagram are basically posting ads anyway (but they are ones I want to see)-- just for DC go-go gigs, New Orleans brass ones, afrobeat/afropop dj nights, etc.

I get a ton of ads now. never used to until a couple months back maybe.

kind of getting done with instagram i think.

and there's only so many times I can share photos of my cat, weird graffiti, sunset over the ocean, or some mountains.

I've never seen an ad on the 'stagram

hmm. wonder what the reason behind some of us getting ads and others not. im on android.

these are all in my feed within the last 12 hours

maybe a function of how many followers or posts or followers you have. I have under 10 of all of those. iPhone.

*people you follow

Sidestepping from the advert discussion, a thriller series is playing uniquely on Instagram this month via 15-second video posts each day, plus accompanying photos... http://www.shield5.com

i have iPhone and a few hundred posts/followers/following.

Plenty of adverts here, but they're not too obnoxious yet.

Instagram advertising is a straightforward option when making Facebook adverts and sponsored/boosted posts nowadays. Tried it once so far as an experiment, but Instagram still works well organically, so we haven't found the need yet.

How I (Almost) Made Big Money Working From Home Promoting Products on Instagram

this is probably the first major trend that I managed to miss entirely before everyone was not only on it but already in backlash
i kinda hate primary visually oriented communication.
