Instagram is a mobile app that
allows you to share photos fast.
Or is it?! In February it unveiled
web functions
-Browse others photos in real time
-Like photos
-Comment
But! Still no uploads or photo filters
•In 2012, Instagram saw an
increase of 400 percent—going
from 15 million users to 80 million
by July.
•In September, this photo sharing
app had more traffic than Twitter.

Sprint wireless
Situation: It’s Black Friday and Sprint is offering a dynamite and
highly marketed deal on three Samsung phones, including one of the
leading ones on the market. Demand is high causing its website to
crash and phone lines are tied up. Customers are upset and saying it.
Sprint Michael Adsit Jr - With such a hot deal the webpage is extremely busy. I really appreciate your patience with the site.
Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions and I'll be happy to help as much as I can. I sincerely
hope your friend's dad gets better soon, he is in my thoughts! *Ben
Sprint Letitia Monsey - I'm sorry about the issues with sprint.com. Were you able to get your order processed? Also, for the
activation fee wavier, was this a new line of service or an upgrade? Please let me know and I can help you complete the order
if need be. Thank you *KC
Jeff Teamdeadlyhertz Lockhart Thats BS, you just tried and got through? Are you kidding me, I have been trying non stop
now since 3PM eastern and every time I get an error...now I get this message that you all are enhancing the site...how is it
you just get through? I have been with Nextel since 1998 and with Sprint ever since the merger, with 4 lines on my account.
If I cant get through in the next 15 minutes. Me and my 4 lines wont be a Sprint issue anymore. This is crazy
Michael Howard Schine Turned away at store because they are sold out. Called 800SPRINT1 on the flyer; they are closed.
Tried sprint.com/holiday, but the purchase section is temporarily unavailable. Tried 8668667509, told 15 minutes wait and
press "1" to hold, received a rapid busy signal. Store implied offer is limited quanities. Seems like Sprint, a telecommunication
company, does not have telecommunication capability to handle current customers. Very disappointed.
Sprint Kasey Ann - I'm here for you! I would need to look at your account to check for the order. Can you please email me
your phone#, PIN and any order details you are willing to provide to Sprintcares@sprint.com Attn:KC. I want to get to the
bottom of this for you. Thank you *KC
