If you needed even more reason to join our brand new Mobile Movies flickr group, then you just got it – Facebook held a press event yesterday afternoon announcing the addition of video recording and of course sharing to Instagram. So now, not only can you share photos but also 15 second ‘movies’/clips if you like, too.
The update is in the app store and is available for both iOS and Android versions – we suggest you update/download the app, make some cool movies and then upload them to our Mobile Movies flickr group, which is curated every Saturday by Donna Donato and featured on our main site, see here.
Many thanks to David Hayes for suggesting we set up an Instagram Movie hashtag, so we can find your movies even easier – Just tag your movies like this #theappwhisperermovies – and we will find you!

How about setting up an IG group so we can also tag them there as well?
