Welcome to the latest edition of this week’s top social media trends! Instagram is about to touch the untouchable, Lowe’s hacked Stories and Burger King launched a new cryptocurrency.
If someone asked me what is the most talked about platform in 2017, I would probably, without hesitation, say Instagram. The company is simply making headlines week after week. Just over the past 7 days, Instagram announced Canvas Ads in Stories, a new longer Stories format, and started conducting a test that may mess up our grids forever…
And brands are on trend. Many are investing time and efforts on the platform. This week, Lowe’s launch its new campaign: tiny vertical rooms DIY…. hacking the vertical format of Instagram Stories while doing it.
Oh, I almost forgot… there is a new cryptocurrency that may (or may not) start competing with Bitcoin…. #Whoppercoin!
