As much as people are thriving off of online communities, apps and other similar social media creations, we still have an appreciation for physical materials; enter the Instagram Blurb Book. The fact that we are finding ourselves hugely nostalgic for analog simulating products, be them tangible or not, makes this new product completely relevant.
Essentially, the Instagram Blurb Book prints your Instagram photos so that you can enjoy flipping through them offline as well. The reason you would go down this route is that you will need Blurb's special image resolution enhancement and high-quality printing to get the most out of your glorified cell phone pics. A simple process, the Instagram Blurb Book tells a story with pictures taken on the fly.
