Presenting the TechPowerUp Instagram Page

TechPowerUp announced its new Instagram handle, and the retirement of its Google+ account. Instagram is all about pretty pictures that tell stories; and so our idea behind our Instagram presence is to bring you not just high quality exclusive pictures of the products we're reviewing; but also to get more personal with behind-the-scenes content - such as new product arrivals to our labs, unboxings, etc. Exclusive images from our breaking news coverage also makes it there. Instagram also lets us fuse our technical photography skills with creativity. Every post to Instagram is carefully curated (not automated), so it stays as organic and personal as possible.

You can reach our Instagram timeline on @techpowerupofficial (emphasis on "official").

Hopefully we'll get to see more than a bunch of next-to-PR level review shots of hardware.

Behind the scenes should be... behind them :)

Nice, but I don't really have Instagram, so I can't really get super happy about this news. But it's good for the brand, Instagram could be a powerful tool in the marketing arsenal.

NB: no idea what instagramm offers beyond twitter, but internet life is all about new startups coming and going, right?

Instagram for friends and family (and for stalking The Umbilical Brothers) is great, but I really do not want product placement in it.

None of those are startups at this point.

My life has officially ended... TPU is on Instagram... sigh... God save us all, instead of adding min fps to CPU benchmarks (which Intel still dominates at and provides a smoother experience) we are now busying ourselves with Instagram to make up for the gained time...

Could you explain a bit more? Maybe with examples? We're Instagram noobs, so always appreciate feedback

SlenderYes, I saw their post and this is really cool news, but there is one detail that makes me suspicious. The fact is that in 3 hours their post gained about 300,000 likes, while they have only 120,000 subscribers. It seems to me a little strange and suggests the idea that they just wind up the likes. It sounds like nonsense, but it seems to me that this is true.
That is easy to explain, Instagram has billions of users and you do not have to be a subscriber to give a like, you just have to have an account.

It sounds like nonsense, but it seems to me that this is true. In addition, a huge number of services have now appeared, such as https://igautolike.com/free-instagram-auto-likes which very quickly and efficiently wind up their likes. I can’t say that this is true, but it’s worth considering ...
Seems like you fail to understand how Instagram works.
