Instagram used to be happy being Instagram. Now they’re also Snapchat and Facebook, which is fine, but be yourself, guys.

Instagram recently launched “Instagram Live,” basically a Periscope/Facebook Live clone that lives right in the app and can only be streamed as it’s happening.

For now, none of these videos are archived or recorded anywhere (gotta wait for the pervs and creeps, they’re always on the cutting edge of that stuff). But if you aren’t following Joel Embiid on Instagram and checking constantly to see if he’s broadcasting, you’re missing out.

When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
