L'economia di Instagram in Kuwait

Geek   14.07.13  

In Kuwait le persone vendono ogni sorta di articolo su Instagram, utilizzando il social network fotografico come una vetrina invece di utilizzare un sito web o siti di aste come eBay.

BR: Kuwait is a crazy mix: a super-affluent country, yet basically a welfare state, though with a super neo-liberal consumer economy.

FQ: We consume vast amounts of everything. Instagram businesses are a big thing in Kuwait.

BR: What's an Instagram business?

FQ: If you have an Instagram account, you can slap a price tag on anything, take a picture of it, and sell it. For instance, you could take this can of San Pellegrino, paint it pink, put a heart on it, call it yours, and declare it for sale. Even my grandmother has an Instagram business! She sells dried fruit. A friend's cousin is selling weird potted plants that use Astroturf. People are creating, you know, hacked products.

Quei nove secondi in più

Geek   24.06.13  

La guerra dei mini video tra Facebook e Twitter si consuma in nove secondi. TechCrunch ha messo a confronto le potenzialità di Instagram Video e Vine.

Instagram just launched video functionality. Glorious, 15-second, editable video functionality. Complete with image stabilization.

So what does this mean for Vine? In the end, the competition should give users plenty to be excited about, whether you're a Vine loyalist or an Instagrammaholic. And both apps will likely continue to thrive, as I've stated a few times already. Where Instagram's user base is mostly made up of people documenting their feet, coffees, and pets, Vine has attracted a group of users who are pleased by the challenges set forth in the app.

Instagram's filters, longer video length, stability technology and already-ingrained user behavior will keep its video offering very similar to its photo offering. People will now just post videos of their feet, coffees, and pets. At the same time, Vine's growing community of creatives and tinkering designers will likely continue to blossom, as well.
