Although it is just an app, Instagram gives people the ability to network, promote and ultimately market themselves to the world just by using hashtags and having followers. Having a successful Instagram is more than just popularity. Having a successful Instagram could be used as an outlet for both professional and leisure aspirations. This app, much like an online portfolio, is used as a platform for many of it’s users. The use of hashtags and “Instameets”, where instagrammers meet face-to-face to discuss the future of their accounts, allow for the Instagram community to display themselves and their work out for the world to see.
