 * Simply Instagram currently locks up the webpage when it is fetching data from
   Instagram. It is waiting for Instagram to deliver the data to the plugin for 
   rendering the webpage.
 * This is not a good solution. Fetching data should be done in the background by
   for example generating a separate file that you then can add to the webpage using
   JavaScript (AJAX). By doing it this way Simply Instagram will not lock up the
   webpage while it is fetching data from Instagram and it can add the HTML-code
   when the data has been delivered.
 * Another option is to schedule the fetching of data and save it in the database
   and then use this saved data to render the webpage.
 * Any chance you can add this functionality?
