No Filter by Sarah Frier Book Summary

Winner of the 2020 Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award * Finalist for SABEW'S Inaugural Best in Business Book Award

In this “sequel to The Social Network” (The New York Times), award-winning reporter Sarah Frier reveals the never-before-told story of how Instagram became the most culturally defining app of the decade.

“The most enrapturing book about Silicon Valley drama since Hatching Twitter” (Fortune), No Filter “pairs phenomenal in-depth reporting with explosive storytelling that gets to the heart of how Instagram has shaped our lives, whether you use the app or not” (The New York Times).

In 2010, Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger released a photo-sharing app called Instagram, with one simple but irresistible feature: it would make anything you captured look more beautiful. The cofounders cultivated a community of photographers and artisans around the app, and it quickly went mainstream. In less than two years, it caught Facebook’s attention: Mark Zuckerberg bought the company for a historic $1 billion when Instagram had only thirteen employees.

That might have been the end of a classic success story. But the cofounders stayed on, trying to maintain Instagram’s beauty, brand, and cachet, considering their app a separate company within the social networking giant. They urged their employees to make changes only when necessary, resisting Facebook’s grow-at-all-costs philosophy in favor of a strategy that highlighted creativity and celebrity. Just as Instagram was about to reach a billion users, Facebook’s CEO Mark Zuckerberg—once supportive of the founders’ autonomy—began to feel threatened by Instagram’s success.

Frier draws on unprecedented access—from the founders of Instagram, as well as employees, executives, and competitors; Anna Wintour of Vogue; Kris Jenner of the Kardashian-Jenner empire; and a plethora of influencers worldwide—to show how Instagram has fundamentally changed the way we show, eat, travel, and communicate, all while fighting to preserve the values which contributed to the company’s success. “Deeply reported and beautifully written” (Nick Bilton, Vanity Fair), No Filter examines how Instagram’s dominance acts as lens into our society today, highlighting our fraught relationship with technology, our desire for perfection, and the battle within tech for its most valuable commodity: our attention.

Fabulous!. A captivating story, written in the easy-to-read manner with a lot of business insights.

Not as good as hatching tweeter. This book was a snooze fest but for the beginning and spent far too little on the embryonic stage of the company. Sarah seemed more focused on slamming Zuckerberg and Facebook then on Instagram itself.

Great read for future tech guru’s. I am currently developing a app and I needed to read something inspiring. This book fulfilled that need and more! Great read!

A book worth tweeting about…. The story of Instagram and the big egos that crossed paths — or collided — couldn’t have been more entertaining. Written with a light and easy prose in narrative form, Sarah Frier’s book is well researched and fun. I couldn’t put it down. Frier has a great mind for understanding the social and economic pressures that cause otherwise intelligent people to make very poor decisions and effortlessly moves between the micro of ego to the macro of socio-political consequences. Loved it!

No Filter. So eye opening and informative. Great read for the millennial generation!!!

Highly recommended. I enjoyed “No Filter” very much. The book provides a fast paced overview of the personalities and business strategy of Instagram and their acquisition and integration into Facebook. It is well written, crisp and informative. I thought the author worked hard to provide a fair and even-handed narrative of events. I have seen some of author Sarah Frier’s work in Bloomberg Business Week and on Bloomberg TV and am impressed with her work. I look forward to more great books from her in the future!
