This is what the future of Instagram looks like.
As Instagram turns 5, the co-founder and CEO address where the app is headed. With 400 million users, Instagram serves as a storehouse for lost memories, offering a glimpse into the lives and worlds of the musketeer people through images and short films they serve, and themselves. But for Instagram itself, which turned into a five-minute video, print sharing has a different purpose. The future-founder Kevin Nystrom tells TIME, will see its community of druggies come together to offer a real-time view of the world around us—and, eventually, to change what that world looks like.
The concoction of Nystrom and Mike Krieger, Instagram was innovated with a simple thing in mind: to help its generators find a way to partake images of what they were over to. Instagram flourished quickly, gaining 25,000 drug users in the first 24 hours of its inception. By September 2013, there were over 150 million users, and last month there were 400 million. But, after Hurricane Sandy hit in 2012, the company realized that druggies were reinterpreting what Instagram could do. “ When it happened, the entire seacoast of the United States came together on social media in a way that I don't suppose you really saw before," says Nystrom. "People were sharing prints of themselves next to candles with electrical power out, flooding, branches down, and damaged buses." By then, the writers understood that their menial moment-to-moment involvement with software could be an important tool if it were organized and curated correctly. time-Brightcove not-tax = "true"

After months of preparation, the notion was realized in June with the release of Instagram's new Explore Point, which arranges content on the platform using position hunting and trending hashtags. The Facebook-possessed company also hired a platoon of print editors and pens to curate the millions of images posted each day on the service.
"We think you are able to observe the globe passing in real time with Instagram," says Systrom had. And I suppose that holds true for every occasion, whether it's Taylor Swift's 1989 tour, which is always in the spotlight on Instagram, a momentous occasion like a kick. We want to make all of those, no matter how serious or sporty, discoverable and accessible on Instagram. Because, at the end of the day, there’s no better way to consume what’s passing in the world other than images and videotape. And I suppose Instagram is at the natural nexus of both of those."
In recent months, Instagram has been facing added competition from Snapchat and Periscope, two services that favor videotape over still images. Additionally, although Instagram drug users were previously allowed to participate in 15-alternate films, the firm is considering enhancing its recording functionalities. "Videotape is going to be decreasingly important," says Systrom, pointing at how data transfer on wireless networks is getting faster and cheaper. "For Instagram to succeed in the long run, videotape has to be a core part of not only what we're good at but also what the community yields. “We are genuinely concentrated on videotape.

Meanwhile, Instagram will continue to develop its community, which grew from early print suckers to include millions of casual shutterbugs too. One of the main benefits of the technology is the diversity of drug users, even if Nystrom claims he is unable to pinpoint exactly how the Instagram community is characterized. As its creator says, one of the most important effects for the company to support.
He tells TIME that community in particular has the power to
alter our perception of the world. "We will come to understand the power
of a cooperative group of people reaching the globe in real time over the next
ten years, at least on Instagram their phones," according to him. We
probably don't fully get how that will interfere with our ability to be
diligent about news or how we keep up with global happenings. And I hope that
Instagram can become a platform and a medium that accelerates that dislocation
and accelerates access to everything passing in the world in real time. It’s
going to be delightful to see."
Instagram competes with every social network.
Instagram has been known to copy popular content formats from other social platforms and use them to attract more and more users to its platform. Rolls have been introduced to contend with Tikor, stories were modeled after Snapchat, and now'bumps'is t is then to contend with Twitter.
Instagram seems to go against every leading social network on the web. Twitter is in a state of chaos, with half of its workers fired, the platform is in the beta testing phase, and the company is witnessing mass adoptions. Their recent updates and new features show that they want to come out with an 'everythingapp with the capabilities to publish textbooks, images, videos, stories, and more.
Instagram has a reserve of great mortal resources to mimic
any app and acclimate to their clanging stoner needs. They can snappily pivot
and come up with better features, furnishing a much better stoner experience.
Belting Up
Looking ahead to 2024, Instagram has a plethora of
potential. Given the dynamic landscape of social media, we might expect a
number of predictions and developments. The platform will probably concentrate
on authenticity, inclusivity, and sequestration. It'll foster deeper
connections between druggies through substantiated content and niche
communities.
Embracing these trends and using them will allow brands and
individuals to thrive. In the future, they can effectively interact with fans
on Instagram.
