Topping the list of [Most Instagrammed Places in the World in 2013](http://blog.instagram.com/post/69877035043/top-locations-2013) is … Siam Paragon Shopping Center here in Bangkok, which we’ll be visiting today like we often do. It beat out that lackluster Times Square. No. 9 is Suvarnabhumi Airport, Bangkok’s main facility and quite futuristic-looking. I’m pleased New York City’s High Line made the top 10. We really liked visiting that. (I’m still not sure what Instagram is, to tell you the truth. :() Additional stories [here](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2523300/Justin-Bieber-Will-Smith-Instagram-photo-1-5-million-likes-popular-2013.html) and [here](http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/12/the-most-instagrammed-place-in-the-world-is-a-mall-in-bangkok/282328/). ---

Instagram is basically having a set of photo-editing tools and filters built into a social networking app that exists for the purpose of “lookit my cool photos!” You follow people’s accounts, look at their photos, and post your own edited-up photos for others to similarly see. ---

How does that differ from Facebook? ---
