I am probably the most technically challenged person on the planet, but my kids are not~the latest gadget, & they gotta have it! They each have i-phones 3 & 4. In April, Facebook reportedly paid $1 billion to acquire Instagram, a combo of $300 million and shares of stock. I'm sure the founders of Instagram, 2 guys named Kevin Systrom, Mike Krieger, are quite happy with the deal.

In any event, you can take & share pretty good-quality pics on a variety of social networking sites, which my son did below~I may be biased, but I thought this pic...PRICELESS!

Never heard of Instagram - I'm so uncool...

August Lady Jun 10, 2012, 10:28am UTC

HA, now I don't feel so bad~it was all over the news back in April when FB bought them out.

Never heard of Instagram but I'm sure we'll be hearing more about it as time goes on.

Good pic!
