“Instagram is a media company. I think we're about visual media. I explain ourselves as a disruptive entertainment platform that enables communication through visual media. I don't think it's just photos. There's a reason we don't allow you to upload photos on the Web as albums. It's not about taking all these photos off your DSLR putting them into an album and sharing them with your family. It's not about that. It's about what are you up to right now out in the real world, how can you share that with everyone.” ThinkingWorldRealReasonCompanyShareMediaCommunicationRight NowAlbumsEntertainmentOur FamilyVisualsReal WorldPlatformsInstagramDisruptive Author:Kevin Systrom

“I've been very reluctant on the Twitter front. But I do Instagram now, so I'm slowly coming around. I'm quite a private person, so much of what I do for my job means that I have to be quite public so I'm just nervous about everything being public. I might turn around.

“I think a bigger difference with social media is going to be things like the impact Instagram will have for historians. For the longest time, we had no images of the past. And then when we had the advent of the camera, we had a record of the things people chose to photograph, which, for a while, were portraits of your family, a new building we built, or a really big horse. Well now we have images of everything. That will be the biggest difference I think - that we will have a visual record of this reality in a way that will be completely covered.” PeopleThinkingWayWellsBigsRealityPastSocialDifferencesRecordsMediaBuildingBuiltBiggerHorseCamerasImpactPhotographSocial MediaOur FamilyVisualsCoveredHistorianPortraitsInstagramAdvent Author:Chuck Klosterman
