It took me a long time to hop on the instagram for iPhone bandwagon. I thought it was just a photo taking app, but really it is a photo sharing app. It's like twitter in that you can follow people and have followers but instead of text updates – it's photo updates. And there are…

Welcome to the "new" blog! If you click through you'll see it's changed – but really it's not too different! It was important to me to keep things simple and very easy to navigate. And the sidebars & banner were always pretty photo focused and I enjoyed that aspect so they remained, just became more…
