Getting with the times!
« on: April 15, 2015, 12:34:08 PM »
Hi all

After a number of chats recently with several differnet people, it seems I really need to get on social media. After looking at a few options I decided I would have a dabble with Instagram. For those who don't know, Instagram is an easy way to share photos with followers. In my case I will be posting photos of my work with descriptions. I promise not to bombard folk with other junk, just turned work, but I need followers. If you think this might be of interest then please do take a look and follow me on Instagram!

Not much on there yet as I'm still getting to grips with it, but I will try to keep regular images coming, whenever I make something that I think might be interesting.

Thanks for looking

Richard

Well it did me, may be you hit the wrong button George.  :)

Thanks for the link Richard, Twitter is my preferred social media at the moment as it only allows me 200 characters/including spaces so I can't waffle as much as I normally do I don't get the time for the others such as Face Book etc although I know for people I know they have gotten quite a bit of work from it as I have from Twitter.   :) but I know instagram is massive and I will link to it to see how it is developing for you.

George,

I'm no expert but you might need an account with Instagram to access Richard's postings.

Thanks Mark.

You don't need an Instagram account to see it I don't think, but you do to follow. It is a free app on your phone.

I stand corrected, but admit I am not a user, therefore assumed incorrectly.

Looking good Richard, I went over to Instagram nearly a year ago & now it's about the only social media I bother with, no spam, adverts, promotions or re-posts that are of no interest.

Best of luck with it.
