App Reviews, Good design, Using technology

instagram: the Visual Twitter

June 4, 2011 / 4 Comments

Are you all Instagram fans? It’s an app for sharing photos (and using interesting filters) on iPhones. I gave it a try a couple months ago, and didn’t quite catch on, but these days I’m addicted. There’s something very appealing about seeing tiny little snapshots of other’s daily lives. It’s my favorite app to check when I’m waiting for the T.

If you’re on there, you can find me under girlpolish, and I would love to follow you back!

postscript: Of course NYT wrote an article about it yesterday that I missed. Apparently there are 5 million+ users! I only follow 23…

  Of course I did not know that! Have you actually sent printouts to friends/yourself?

Hi! I live in Vermont with my husband Joe and our four daughters: 11, 9, 6, and 3.

Writing on this blog is fluid. In an effort to just keep going I try to publish things before they feel ready or perfect, and I often come back and edit them again, later on. Its primary purpose is a way to engage with others on topics that otherwise swirl about in my mind in a lonely way. I spend most of my time homeschooling and learning alongside the girls. I grew up in Michigan and was homeschooled with my six siblings until I went to high school. I believe in God; our family attends a Mennonite church.

If you sign up for email updates you will get any new posts in your inbox the week they are posted, which is a good fit for an irregular writer like me. Sign up here!

*If anything here makes it appear that my life is clean and breezy--don't be fooled. I enjoy displaying things in a tidy way here, which is very much in contrast to my everyday life.

*I use Amazon affiliate links where possible. I like tracking clicks and at some point I might actually cover the cost of years of web hosting.
