This week I was interviewed for a forthcoming book about Instagram. I was an early investor and had hung around back when it was still just @kevin & @mikeyk. Normally when I do interviews like that, authors are looking for scoops and scandals. But in this case, there just aren’t any. With Kevin and Mikey, what you see is what you get. So instead, we talked about how and why Insta remained so positive while the rest of social media got so dark. We discussed the early days when the founders were coding the filters themselves and how obsessively creative they both were outside of work. How much the actual art mattered to them. We covered the genuine community we had here on Insta and the friendships that resulted through sharing images. During my chat with the author, I pulled up my old account and started scrolling. So many cathartic moments, so many memories. I literally Instagrammed from the altar at our wedding. (@crystale was cool with it. Phew.) Throughout this feed, there was much love from friends I haven’t seen in forever. That might be related to posting just two pics in the last four years. Long way of saying, thanks Kevin & Mikey. But more importantly, I miss all of you guys over here. Hard to catch up on all that time, but this pic is a pretty good summary. I wake up every day with the four very best humans and we collectively do what we can to make the world better. #yesfilter (shot by @larissaclevelandphoto)
