instagram and identity
Our research topic focuses on the effects the integration of the social
media platform Instagram has had on the expression of identity, more
specifically, with the introduction of new features such as close friends’
stories, switching easily between multiple accounts, and the ability to mute
other people’s stories. Another aspect that we will be looking at is the
prevalent use of “finstagrams” (aka finsta’s). Our survey included questions about people’s prior knowledge about
Instagram, user demographics, how much users used Instagram, and how they used
their finsta’s. The link can be found
