Big thanks to everyone who came down to @thesociallondon last night as we brought South Yorkshire to Fitzrovia for the London launch of Groovy, Laidback and Nasty. Brilliant chat between @ddywray and guest host @benbthomas, lovely crowd (with some great audience questions), top tunes from DJs @zaereo @toddlat and @96_back, and every single copy sold out from @realmagicbooks. And we’ll be announcing our next event here very soon…

Ahead of the new Foo Fighters album next month I did the first newspaper interview with Dave Grohl since his infidelity scandal, and since the deaths in quick succession of his mother and Taylor Hawkins. Powerful and revealing discussion about grief, selfhood, ambition ... And an interesting dance around *that* issue. Had some in-depth chats with his bandmates as well. On the cover of @guardiang2 today with a longer version online.

View Instagram Stories in Secret

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
