After realizing what I had done, I made it a mission to seek out some of those spots, get my own Instagram-worthy shots — and find out if they were the real deal.
In this week’s social report we’re celebrating World Emoji Day, a day where we can share our love for the little yellow faces that help us express ourselves better than we ever have before (seriously, how did we share gossip with our friends without the steaming tea emoji?) The world truly embraced this day of emojis with the new iOS update featuring redheaded emojis (can we get a “finally!”), Twitter overflowing with love for the underappreciated aerial tram emoji, and Instagram adding emoji reacts to stories, a la Facebook. In addition to Emoji Day, the internet also celebrated Malala Yousafzai’s 21st birthday and her creation of an Instagram account!
