test during an AMA session.
According to Mosseri, the service currently supports , âtall videos, but you cannot
have tall photos on Instagram.".
So we thought maybe
we should make sure that
we treat both equally, Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram, via Hypebeast.
Mosseri points out that the app has traditionally limited portrait images to a maximum ratio of 8:10, cropping portrait images into an almost square-like format.
The new 9:16 support is meant to
give photographers and bloggers
more control and room for creativity.
According to Mosseri,
the testing phase for the new
feature will begin âin a week or two.â

instalment of TTPD: The Anthology.
15 extra songs. And now the story
isnât mine anymore⊠itâs all yours, Taylor Swift, via Instagram.

events, opinions and sentiments from a fleeting
and fatalistic moment in time â one that was both sensational and sorrowful in equal measure.â.
This period of the authorâs life is
now over, the chapter closed and
boarded up. There is nothing to
avenge, no scores to settle
once wounds have healed. , Taylor Swift, via Instagram.
And upon further reflection,
a good number of them
turned out to be self-inflicted. , Taylor Swift, via Instagram.
This writer is of the firm belief that
our tears become holy in the form
of ink on a page. Once we have
spoken our saddest story, we can
be free of it. And then all thatâs left
behind is the tortured poetry, Taylor Swift, via Instagram.

Meanwhile, music journalists' reviews have been mixed when it comes to the double album drop.
Taylor Swift's new album,
'The Tortured Poets Department,' is
a boldly candid breakup album, with
some of her most quotable lyrics ever, Chris Willman, senior music writer
and chief music critic at 'Variety'.
The intrigue in the lyrics is somewhat
predicated on gossip and I found that
after three or four listens to this album,
or at least the first half, once youâve
drained the fact out of it, I wasnât quite
sure what the replay factor would be, Laura Snape, deputy music editor at 'The Guardian,' via Deadline
