" I actually love the new Instagram logo, but..."



But mostly the internet had a fit over the logo change.

I don't use Instragram, but I like the new app icon design better than the old one. While I can understand liking or disliking particular app icon designs, does a change, even for the worse, really warrant a collective audience freakout? (Answer: No.)

Do you really think there was a "collective audience freakout?"

Really?

Only the Instagrammers. Not being one, first I'd heard of it, and Care? Not I, said the little red hen.

I see so many posts where people are angry over this redesign. I agree with Robert Cook. It is not something that really matters. It is just a logo. Don't like it? Don't look at it. To tell the truth, when this controversy began, I couldn't even remember what the old icon looked like. And I have been following several people on Instagram for quite a while.

The old one was nice. This new one says that the whole idea of making your cell phone pics look like Kodachrome, or a Polaroid? Well that was all just a lot of nonsense. Instagram made a brand error.

For some reason, the new logo makes me feel like screaming

What's Instagram? Another Silicon Valley intrusion into our life?

I guess. I don't really know either

Well, that's the subject of this blog post, and of the NY Times story that is linked to...a "collective internet freakout."
