Instagram

Instagram is a free photo sharing application that allows users to take photos, apply a filter, and share it on the service or a variety of other social networking services, including Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, Tumblr, Flickr, and Posterous. The application is compatible with iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch or Android devices running Android.In an homage to both the Kodak Instamatic and Polaroid cameras, Instagram confines photos into a square shape. This is in contrast to the 3:2 aspect ratio normally used by the iOS device cameras. The application was developed by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger.In April 2012, Instagram was acquired by Facebook. 根据这个定义,这个软件和“电报”没有丝毫关系,因此不宜译为即时电报,一些网页上的“即时电报”这种解释是基于一种误解。另外有另一个社交媒体叫Telegram, 中文名就是电报,用即时电报来翻译Instagram,会引起读者对于两者的混淆。

ins / 即时电报


Explanation:
Instagram,最常見簡稱為IG,早期常用簡稱為insta,在中国大陆簡稱ins, ...
Instagram目前尚無官方的中文譯名,較廣泛的稱呼為即时电报,因為Instagram的名称取自“即时”(英語:instant)与“电报”(英語:telegram)两个单词的结合。
