Location: oklahoma | instagram. I don't get it, except as a way for my teenager to post pictures of his girlfriend so I can't see them together, lol. Looks like the same stuff people put on fb. |

| I think the popularity of Instagram came about because kids didn't want to be on Facebook where their parents spend time. I know some kids have even deleted their facebook accounts because it has become all about the number of likes and business type stuff.......... and also where adults of all ages spend time too. |

Cold hands and Warm Heart
Location: oklahoma | I signed up for it a year ago and forgot about it. Guess I'll forget about it again. Looks like a lot of selfies, most of which I've seen on fb. I think you're right soda, and it doesn't look like I get to spy on my son cuz his is set to private. LOL. I don't have any reason to other than I'm nosey. |

Location: Pacific Northwest | I have instagram but I use Facebook way more often.
I think it's a younger (I'm 25, so I'm talking even younger than me) person thing and it's also a "celebrity" thing, which I think is what attracts the younger people. A lot of celebrities post a ton of pictures on instagram I've noticed. |

| I creep on my daughters instagram every now and then. I know, it makes me a bad person. I'm just amazed that post after post is just one person after another bragging on their accomplishments, showing off an outfit, or a selfie where they are hunting for compliments. |

Location: oklahoma | No, it makes up responsible, caring and involved parents to creep, I mean , stay interested in our children. 
Yea, i guess its their lives told with pictures, idk. Im too old to care about the same selfies i see on fb for the most part so in one day, i downloaded the app and deleted it. |

Location: Nebraska | I have an instagram but don't post a whole lot. Even then, it's usually a pic of the horses or dogs lol. It's just another way to pass time for me when I'm bored. What drives me nuts are the people that post pics of themselves working out every single day with about 50 hashtags. |

Location: Oklahoma | I'm an avid user, but it's about 80% pictures of my animals and the other 20% is just random stuff that I find funny. I'm not a selfie person, salesperson or gym rat.... So those people get unfollowed ASAP!!!
I'm not on FB, so it's my only real form of social media that I partake in... (Unless Pinterest counts!) I like to follow a lot of barrel racers and see their runs, tack sets, trips, etc. |

Cold hands and Warm Heart
Location: oklahoma | I didn't embarass my son when we met up with his girlfriend at the Christmas parade so he said I could follow him on Instagram. My world is right again, lol. Now I don't want too
my sister showed me around the site more so it makes a little more sense now. I'll just keep fb,mits all I have energy for, or desire. |

IG became way cooler when they started allowing videos. Instagram is sometimes educational.... I never knew they made box fan holders for stalls until I saw one on Jackie Ganter's IG! I had to have one!! |
