Instagram bursts like a summer storm. It brought a
significant change in its users’ life. It
it as a worldwide hub with efficient tools to feel followed,
appreciated. On one hand this power can be seen as an illusion, on the other as
an effective skill that provided a meaningful change to the society hierarchy.
The first perspective analyzes the app cozying people about warp popularity,
the second its meaningful support in giving courage and fortitude to repress
people to speak aloud. The first consequence is generally more evident and it
is what characterizes most of the users. Till ten years ago, people used to
read about famous people free time and
admire how and where actors, football players and
politicians spent their vacations.
Nowadays, everybody shares on a platform with millions of
members what and where
they are going to eat, where they are going to shop, how
they are going to party for the
best friend’s birthday and so on. It follows that, earning
hundreds of likes, they feel as
important, as stalked and as noticed as the famous people
they used to read about to
fulfill the time spent to commute every morning or to fulfill the boring winter evenings at
home in the past. through these dynamics Instagram has been
an opportunity to please
different implicit needs such self esteem needs through the
decision of sharing and telling something of private life and eventually
self-realization needs. It satisfies the necessity of realizing the personal identity,
of accomplishing personal expectations, the desire of filling a relevant
position in a significant group. This is a primary key of Instagram’s success:
users utilize it because, the app remunerates them with a sort of illusive compensation
and a sort of delight.
Great points that you made. I am just the guy who don't get why people follow other people to see what's going on in other people's daily life.
