The Instagram Junkie Infographic is Satirically Witty
Courtney Scharf — May 14, 2012 — Pop Culture
With the increasing popularity of phone-based photography, the satirical Instagram Junkie infographic couldn't come at a better time.
Poking fun at the over-the-top, vain and competitive nature of the Facebook-owned app, this infographic is a funny caricature of some all too true tendencies. The hilarious viral-ready graph, which describes both physical and emotional symptoms, is making the rounds on the Internet and resonating with all-too-many smartphone users. Detailing the places where Instagram addicts swarm, and highlighting the ever-accurate dependency on iPhones, this is a clever caricature with a healthy dose of pop culture sass.
Infographics are a fantastic way to sort out important information, but sometimes it's nice to see a ridiculous topic spelled out in a visual way. The Instagram Junkie infographic is a wonderful example of the latter, and is sure to spread as widely as the app itself.
