This past summer Instagram unveiled an interesting novelty that called it Instagram Stories. This allows users to share photos and videos that last 24 hours before they disappear. It is now when Instagram puts those stories in a place where they can be found more easily.
There are not a few social networks that are joining that fashion of creating "stories" or "moments"as has happened to Twitter with one of his best news in recent months and that he integrated several weeks ago. Twitter Moments or Instagram Stories, or whatever you want to call them, almost comes to the same thing.
But it also happens that if you launch a new functionality, in this case the stories or Instagram Stories, they have to be easily accessible by users, since if it cannot go unnoticed. This is where the approach that Instagram has wanted to give with the new update that makes it easier to discover new stories by taking Stories to the exploration tab.
Stories will appear at the top of the page and, similarly to the browse tabThey will be personalized according to your own interests. Instagram has stated that more than 100 million people visit the explore tab every day to discover new photos and videos of people they do not follow yet.
As this feature competes with Snapchat, and is another of the copies that Facebook makes without thinking and without much shame, is closely related to the Twitter Moments. Now we would have to think that there is still a social network to add its "Instants" or whatever they want to call it, because what one creates, then the others copy one after the other.
Something that happens in the hardware world and telephony with those edge screen trends or dual cameras.
