Okay, like me you probably don't give a rat's ass about Instagram, but
it is a source of amusement from time to time. And this has gotta be

Apparently, there's a movement that is letterboxing their shots to
preserve their original aspect ratio and uploading -- gasp! --
non-square images. Is this the new hip? Anti-hip?
And not only this, but these folks are espousing uploading unfiltered
images too. Ie, not mangled to look Polaroidesque like the other 50
million users do.
So uploading clean, unadorned, SooC images makes you stand out.
Heh! Unhip is the new hip.
