Stuff & Nonsense product and website design

Delayagram

This week I was sat in a hotel in London and uploaded at photo to Instagram. It was a kangaroo I met a couple of weeks ago at a sanctuary near Brisbane.

It’s a half decent photo.

OMG! KANGAROOS ARE SOOO CUUUTE!

But posting the photo felt wrong.

I know plenty of people who post Instagram photos from weeks or even months back. But Instagram isn’t Flickr and photos on Instagram should be from today, or at a push from yesterday.

You know. Like insta(nt).

Anything else is a Delayagram.
