Popular Post Ken Gargett Posted March 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 1, 2019 i have been convinced that i should be on instagram. one reason i held off was that i assumed that it would be beyond my dinosaur-era tech skills to join but, so far, it seems remarkably easy. although i am at a brick wall for whatever happens after one joins. but it has left me beyond depressed. the algorithm or whatever that "makes recommendations' has decided the person i should be most likely to follow is mily cyrus. shoot me now. my life has come down to a machine thinking i have something/anything in common with her. it gets worse. in my top eight are a couple of kardashians and a jenner or two and katey perry, who i seem to remember was a singer some years ago. anyway, i am now apparently kengargett on this thing. i'm not really sure what happens now. i'm off to talk to my people. apparently, i now have people. 6 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrairieSmoke Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I got a good laugh out of this post! The more people you follow and the more pages you visit the algorithm will improve. It’s pretty bleak when you start out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islandboy Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I know nothing about Instagram as well...but if a guy like KEN finds it useful, I’m intrigued. Is it anything like Facebook (which I abandoned a few years ago) where you’re inundated with the opinions of people and trolls you don’t even know? Or is it mostly photos?

Mostly photos but it depends on what you choose to follow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigatoh Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Followed, but you need to add at least 50 hash tags per post and start doing obvious product placement as though you'd been drinking product x multiple times a day forever and no mention of sponsorship or freebies of course...

CaptainQuintero Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 It's replaced my morning newspaper while I'm eating my breakfast, the news is too much these days. So I can just flick through pics of my interests, bits of tasty cigars, history stuff etc. It's like a little shot of your interests without getting too deep. You need to get into the teeth whitening advertising gig Ken, you'll be well on your way to stardom with only minor hits to your self respect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irratebass Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Welcome to IG Ken, it is a little better than FB, but not much since FB now owns them, it used to be great......like the old internet, anyway I've been on IG for years, and yes I too follow Miley (he she shows an occasional nipple, c'mon) anyway, if you want to see me my hand, face, hats, and cigars follow me IG: irratebass BTW I followed all who mentioned their IG's already.......you're welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost seems like being “Friends” with someone on FB. Flowing their posts and pictures. Seems redundant. Maybe I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_jack Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I avoid all social media other than this and a few other cigar forums. I'm convinced it is the cause of much of the world's problems.Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
