The takeaway was that the user made an incorrect guess based off the information they had available.
Instagram has turned into one of the best acquisitions made in the last ten years, keeping the Facebook brand relevant to a younger audience than the main website.
But at the time it didn’t seem like all that special of an application given the nascent market in which it sat.
- stinkytaco 5y agoThe comparison to YouTube still seems apt. It's very hard to avoid YouTube if you interact with the Internet at all, no matter your age or interests. On the other hand, I suspect most people over 30 can go weeks without ever interacting with Instagram.
- mekoka 5y agoI don't have an Instagram account. When someone sends me an Instagram link, my gut feeling is that I won't be able to access the contents, so I don't even bother. Instagram, much like facebook, feels to me like an alien portion of the web. I can open most YouTube links that my location allows, regardless of being signed in or not. YouTube still feels like it's part of the web.
