Posting pic on Instagram from PC ( windows ) ... REALLY


       

 Have been involved in photography for some time now. So as every other photographer always in constant quest for new platforms to project my work. Instagram is one of the most popular platform. 

        Unfortunately predominantly being a mobile app most of their feature are enabled only on mobiles including uploading pics. For mobile photographers its not a concern at all. There are many mobile app for photo editing apps. This makes its easy to load pics from mobile itself. 

        But there's a catch 😉. And all photographers ( those with dslr and camera pics) will definitely  concur with pain in ass this app is for us. Reason being pic from dlsr camera's are quite heavy. Need special software for high level editing. Once done it has to be copied to mobile for being uploaded on Instagram.

Dslr à PC à editing software à mobile à Instagram  

        To resolve this have been trying to get hold of method to upload it directly from PC. Insta wants to get pic uploaded from mobile only. They have kind of allergy with PC types. So why not use insta app ......on pc. WHAT .. Is it even possible ?? and answer is BIG YES. Insta web page can be fooled of being used from mobile. Its bit technical but easy to follow. 

Mantra for this process is 

Ctrl + Alt + I  à  Ctrl + Alt + M  à Ctrl + Alt + E on Chrome

Let me explain this 

1. Ctrl + Alt + I : to load developers pane 

2. Ctrl + Alt + M : it toggles between console to access web page as PC or Mobile.


3. Ctrl + Alt + E :  reloads page again to be as being accesses from mobile. Now you can see +  sign at bottom of page. Clicking on it will allow users to upload pic. Yes that's it. 3 Steps of peaceful life 



Have been struggling for this and since now I am aware wanted to share it with my fellas.


Disclaimer: Tried it from chrome and it worked for me. Not sure if same would work from any other browser. Try at your own risk.

Wards, lowest node of Indian Political hierarchy

Image
    To be frank thought of this topic as election for nagarsevaks or corporators are near around. And like all elections in India, people interested in politics have already started soft campaigns. Soft because their names are not yet announced as candidates for these election. Once names of candidates to fight for post is declared then real drum beating would start.      Before we deep dive in this topics lets understand where wards is positioned in Indian politics           As you can see above diagram with flow of command where Government of India is at top and wards is the lower most node. We can say wards are working at real grass root level. And are closer to people and their ground realities. It won't be exaggeration if I say collective idea of all ward representatives is idea of whole country. So they have immense responsibilities.      Person elected as representative of ward is call corporators. They are ref...

Natrual Farming : an alternative to organic farming

Image
            Now days if we think of anything natural first things that comes to our mind is that it would be a slow process. Also it may have less output than other artificial variants. But its not necessarily true.  Natural process are infact more robust. One of strong argument in favor would be that it has evolved over millions of years and has survived various changes and catastrophes.  Same applies for farming s well.           Natural farming tries to use of all positive aspects of nature. For e.g. farmers use ploughing to soften soil. This enables roots to grow and spread easily. In natural farming earthworms and microbes available in soil do this work. Natural environment is created for them. Microbes and earth worms dwell in dark and humid climate. They need organic material as their feed. With this understanding in natural farming organic mulching is spread over soil. With mulching its block light f...

West Bengal Elections 2021: Lessons for BJP

Image
West Bengal Elections: Its was not BJP vs TMC but rather ( TMC + other opposition). Other parties not getting significant no. can't be coincidence rather a planned activity. It stopped vote splitting as vote bank of TMC and other opposition is same. Opposition vote got consolidated giving advantage to TMC. And why to forget about absence of BJP star campaigner RG . Now BJP will know his importance. Congress was kept out of entire episode as people don't want to relate to it in any way. Strategical move by opposition parties. This will be BJP's primary concern in coming day's There are much more for BJP to analyze and take corrective action. This also made me fan of Prashant Kishore an intellectual in political arena. Will close it with his words “In defeat, people must be humble enough to acknowledge where they went wrong,”
