The Kitchen Table

Instagram, anyone?

6 years ago

I mentioned Instagram a few minutes ago in another thread. Do you all have Instagram? I use it, sometimes a few times a day. Sometimes not for a few days. I do check it many times a day, but don't always upload photos. But this is mine if you want to follow me if you have it. I'll follow you back if you post your feed. :)

I have instagram and use it more than I use facebook. I follow many travel accounts, cats (lol), wildlife photographers, and of course my friends. :)

Not yet, but I have a friend who does it and I'd like to do it too. Did you have to sign up with your phone or can you do it with your computer? Are there any tutorials online somewhere? My friend has several apps on her phone that she uses to edit her photos and watermark them before putting on instagram.

Instagram anyone?

oh no. I'm already a facebook fanatic and think of it as my daily newspaper. I "like" pages for garden centers, plant nurseries, and local farmers who sell at farmers markets. There's some activity in Gardening in NH group and I just joined something for Pinetree garden seeds. It makes a big difference when the business makes frequent posts. Horsford Nursery in VT makes quite a few. I also like Rocky Dale in VT. Edgewater Farm in Plainfield NH posts a lot of vegetable related photos but in the spring they have great greenhouses open for annuals and perennials but close the greenhouses when the spring buying season tapers off. Spring Ledge Farm in New London NH announces things like farm tours and events. My local nursery usually announces sales or just a reminder of what's good to plant right now. daffodil, I'm reluctant to try something more and new on the computer. Is it the photos that are most appealing?

What I am so intrigued by is that these are real homes...do you think a lot of these are from the 90s or are they modern day? Some of the carpeted ones I definitely think I would have thought were cool in the 80s. I grew up in a beautiful museum like house (literally had furniture that George Washington owned that we couldn’t sit on) and always was so jealous of people who had wall to wall carpet and comfortable furniture.

We fly to Buenos Aires overnight this evening and spend one night in a hotel. We board the ship on Thursday, but don't sail away until Friday evening. That leaves us almost three full days in BA. The cruise goes to Uruguay, Falkland Islands (depending on wind conditions), around the Cape, up the west side of South America including Chilean fjords, a couple of ports in Chile and Peru, on to Ecuador and Panama City. We go through the Panama Canal (our 8th time), then to Aruba, Curacao and Bonaire, ending up in Ft. Lauderdale after 34 days of cruising, where we rent a car and drive home. Dawn, if you have the time, consider what we have set up with Holland America beginning in late October. San Diego to several ports in Hawaii, then (not in order) Samoa, Fiji, Tonga, some other South Pacific islands I cannot pronounce, several ports in French Polynesia, then back to San Diego. 51 days, with lots of days at sea, when I will probably complete a book every other day. On the ms Amsterdam with about 1400 passengers, it is the ship that Holland America uses for their yearly world cruise.

I would like to join Instagram, but don't have a smart phone which is the market they cater to. There are software downloads that will make it work on a laptop, but I haven't looked into that in detail yet. I'm careful about what I download onto my computer so I want to make sure that if I do that, it's something that won't cause problems.

I'm planning to buy a tablet this summer and I believe those will support Instagram, so I may just wait until then.

I have Instagram, I mistakenly thought I was getting Messenger. :^( So now I have both.

I very rarely even look at Instagram, and I have yet to post anything on it. It seems to me to be pretty much just a duplication of Facebook, and I access that from my PC only. These old worn out eyes of mine don't enjoy doing much reading, etc., on the little phone screen.

The younger crowd uses IG more than FB. I have an account, I don't post too often but I read. I follow ex-texts, the fat jewish, JJ watt, Badger and Packer football, and of course my kids/family

Thanks Debbie, but I find that it can be overwhelming. I only use mine for a select few, two are my daughters.

I keep mine on the private setting. I was getting some seedy characters looking at my posts.

I follow my family on Instagram. DD took pictures at several colleges on DGS's college tour over spring break. Loved seeing him on the various campuses! I don't think I've ever posted anything myself.

Sorry, Debby_ab, not going to post my Instagram handle here, nor will I join any of the KT-offshoot FB pages. I prefer to keep my anonymity intact. :) This board is 100% public, and my life is not. :)

I have an Instagram account and am fairly active. I don't post from my smartphone. Instead, I use an easy to use app called Gramblr (http://gramblr.com/uploader/#home) ... So easy to use for us old folks who find typing on a cell phone tedious.

I keep a desktop Post-it app on my laptop loaded with hashtags I use (some for travel, some for nature, others strictly for birds, natgeo, etc.) and pull from there before I post.

My Instagram is @jodis_journeys ... come find me. I just followed you Debby.
