I think I'm officially old now since I truly don't "get" Instagram or care to.

  Instagram is one of the simplest social networks. It's twitter with a focus on picture posts. It's blogging but every post is centered around a picture. It's one thing to not want one yourself, but to be willfully ignorant about something so simple and publicly visible seems like an odd thing to feel the need to advertise.

    Bizarrely I find that Twitter is better for posting pictures (they're not so low resolution and compressed, and the UI is less hostile to viewing them).

      I disagree, but only because reply tweets are the same "class" of content as the initial image tweet itself. It makes it less a comment on the image and more a post directed towards the image's poster. I also think Twitter's UI is still somewhat hostile to viewing them because of how thumbnails aren't just shrunk but also trimmed. I can see where you're coming from though.
