Apple Names Instagram App of the Year

To tell you what Instagram has meant to me in the past several months would seem like so much hyperbole, you’d just respond with a big, fat, “Nuh uh!” Let me try though…

When I’ve been stressed or worried about my future, I’ve tapped the Instagram icon on my phone, iPod Touch or iPad. I follow some geeks, but mostly I follow people who post pictures of pretty things, or at least make pretty pictures of ugly things. Call it a Flinch if you’d like, but I call it peace. With all due respect to John Stewart, Instagram provides my daily moments of zen. I open the App, and all of a sudden, I’m on a 5 minute vacation. That’s why I love it.

Today Apple named Instagram App of the Year. It’s certainly been my App of the year. For me it’s the place I go to experience a constant stream of prettiness.

You can say, “Nuh uh!” I’ll just say, “Uh huh!” Let’s not argue. Congratulations Instagram! Well deserved!
