Instagram is a social media application on which you can capture images, edit them using preset filters, and share them with your followers. A number of people use Instagram: friends, family, celebrities, bloggers - all of them share images that are either relevant to their platform, or to just provide a glimpse of their day to day goings. Instagram now has a video-sharing capability, which means you can also upload your multiple- captured moments at once via slideshow maker.
