What it all means<br />

IGTV: a new app embedded within Instagram for<br />

watching long-form videos by other Instagrammers.<br />

Influencer: when a user has a large enough<br />

follower-base they can be sponsored by brands to<br />

promote their products, with the idea that they<br />

will influence their followers to buy them. The most<br />

successful influencers earn £ thousands per post.<br />

Instagram Stories/ Snapchat - My Story:<br />

users can link snaps or video clips together<br />

and instantly broadcast them. These are collated<br />

into a ‘story’ and appear to followers in a<br />

slideshow format. The story can then be viewed<br />

for up to 24 hours, after which it will vanish.<br />

Snapstreak: if a Snapchat user and friend/s<br />

have snapped each other within 24 hours for<br />

more than one consecutive day, they are said to<br />

be on a ‘streak’. Friends to compete for the top<br />

number of streaks; this can lead to obsession<br />

and meltdowns when streaks are broken.<br />

Snap Map: this feature tracks a Snapchat user’s<br />

location so that friends can find each other on<br />

a map. Each user creates their own ‘bitmoji’<br />

(a cartoon avatar) which makes them easy to<br />

spot. Users can disable the location tracker<br />

by updating their settings to ‘Ghost Mode’.<br />
