» In an unlikely marriage, HP, the world's largest PC manufacturer, has combined brand power with Vivienne Tam to deliver the HP Mini 210 netbook, catering to a niche market with its fashion-world cross-over potential. But it's not the first attempt.

» Facebook has been in the news recently having large numbers of public profiles harvested by marketing conglomerates. Estimates from this incident alone range from 50 to 90 million users and there may be a lot more. The "more" part comes from the user search and account recovery features that may have been abused to scrape up to 2 billion or more accounts.

People use it for things as vain as conjuring up the perfect image for their followers, to things like having a good online presence for their business. Whatever the case, one of the main platforms that we use daily (if not hourly) is good ol' Instagram. Since 2010, IG has all of us sharing photos, choosing filters, taking videos, being obsessed with the right aesthetic and posting on our stories.

Here are six apps to turn your IG cred up a notch, and except for one, all of them are available on the App Store and Google Play.
