Notes de l'éditeur
- Instagram CANNOT sell your photos. At one point, they tried to introduce terms of service, but that is long in the past and they will not user your likeness with any paid or sponsored content. (Whew!)Instagram gets over 8,500 likes every second and has 100 million active users every month. You can use Instagram even if you don’t sell visual products. A great way to do this is by posting “behind the scenes,” photos. It gives consumers a personal glimpse of what it is like to work for your company. When you set up your Instagram, be sure to stick with a name you already use. For example, The Net Impact needs to stay as @thenetimpact. It would make it harder to find if we changed our name to @thebestwebdesigncompanyever. (Even though it would be awesome)The most important thing to remember is that your photos need to have a clear purpose. Sean suggested putting them in a category, such as funny, beautiful, or inspiring.
- Blend-Tec used to grind up wooden boards to test product toughness. One day, the good people at BlendTec had a fantastic idea to start blend tough things in their blender. Here is their first video of them Blending marbles. Their first video got over 6 million views and they began to see what else they could blend. They took suggestions and eventually ended up blending anything from iPhones to McDonalds Hamburgers.
