Instagram is one of the two social media apps that I use regularly and when I see a book about it, I couldn't think so much about if it should be in my reading list or not, I definitely should read and learn more about it, so I just started.
It wasn't a book of "wow"s for me, it didn't enlighten me but anyway it was still a good book to learn more about Facebook and Zuckerberg.
So let me share my highlights from Sarah Frier's "No Filter":
With the rise of Instagram, Beco do Batman has become
one of São Paulo’s top tourist destinations. Via the vacation rental site
Airbnb, various vendors charge about $40 per person to provide two hours of
“personal paparazzi” in the alley, taking high-quality pictures of people to
post on Instagram; the service is a type that’s become one of Airbnb’s most
popular for its travelers in cities around the world.
For amateur photographers, the only cost is the stress of perfection.
Each month, more than 1 billion of us use Instagram. We
take photos and videos of our food, our faces, our favorite scenery, our
families, and our interests and share them, hoping that they reflect something
about who we are or who we aspire to be.
