Launched in March 2010, Instagram took until the end of that year to notch up its millionth user but from there its ascent was dizzying.

Just 15 months later there are more than 30 million account holders and a billion pictures on the site's servers. That's a lot of cupcakes.

made a load of people with zero photographic/artistic expression's photos look the same, yes.



not really sure why i'm posting that but it's one of mine taken with a regular camera and no fancy instagram effects thankyouverymuch. and it's sick imo

I suppose its similar to how people buy an incredibly expensive dslr and lens kit and take pictures which aren't really that great or interesting just the same old picture of some stuff which wouldn't make a good image with or without processing. its mainly snapping in the hopes that the processing does all the work in making a good picture. quite a lot of the time the pictures are terrible but with the filters people suddenly think its actually a lot better.

anyway its all about going old skool and buying a lomo

I feel about them the same as I do about magnetic poetry. The democratic side of me thinks it awesome that people can tap into the creative aspect but the artist in me is a bit grumpy.

its quite clever.I prefer the idea of gif creation with your phone rather than photography,seems to encourage a bit more creative and inventive effort.
