Each week, Instagramers.com discovers new people. But today People are sad. The strongest recorded earthquake to ever hit Japan triggered a powerful tsunami wave that devastated parts of the coast of Japan that will have probably terrible effects. Today Instagramers FocusOn is dedicated to Instagram World Support to our Japanese friends and we lived this horrible day.
.
Friday, 11st of March, Japan.
.
This black friday will be remembered as the most powerful earthquake to hit Japan in recorded history struck, collapsing buildings, touching off widespread fires and unleashing walls of water up to 30 feet high. Leaving probably thousands of people died…
.
Instagramers.com decided today to dedicate its FocusOn weekly to the massive global movement in Instagram around Japanese Disaster. This is a tribute to all our japanese friends who suffers and all our thousands of IG members who shown today through their pics all their big humanity, concern and support. This spontaneous act shows how Instagram links people souls all over the world.

@HavaHava from Tokyo told us this horrible day through Instagram.
“I´m alive in Tokyo”. This pic of a friend i follow in IG astonished me this morning. Tomonori Haba, living in Tokyo (Japan) was claiming he was alive through Instagram. Instagram was not only a question of fun anymore but a communication tool to know what was unfortunately happening in the other side of the planet.
It was the first time in our short Instagramers life we could see the power of information of our Global Instagram Information Network dedicated to other things than the usual “have fun, creativity and happiness”.. It was probably only the beginning of very sad days to come.
