Let’s face it, Instagram has been without the most exciting iPhone app in the past 2 years. It’s probably the most used on mine, above Twitter and Facebook due to my Blackberry’s unending life. What Instagram does to images is indescribable at times, the ability to make something so unattractive look appealing with a few flicks of a finger is dope.
