Facebook Owns Instagram

Edit
Instagram and also Twitter are raving with task ever since the news came out that Facebook had made the procurement of Instagram for a billion dollars - Facebook Owns Instagram.
Today all important media and blogs are reflecting and releasing web pages as well as web pages regarding the bargain, whether it is financial elements, advertising and marketing approaches for both business and the feasible next developments in Palo Alto's mobile as well as social media network industry ...
If I was a Hollywood motion picture producer, I would certainly have named the motion picture a Billion Buck Baby ...
Facebook Owns Instagram
Yet just what does it actually indicate for individuals and Instagramers like us?
After Mark Zuckerberg's official announcement last evening on his Facebook account, hundreds of comments showed up. Not just in Twitter yet In Instagram also. For everyday Instagramers like us, the Instagram App has effectively turned into our main communication device. A location where we can share more than just pictures, but our feelings, belief and also our viewpoints as well.
Yesterday, our @Igers pic stating the "Facebook deal" made it to the Popular Web page, no surprises there ...
As founder of Instagramers, the primary follower network of the Instagram Application around the world, obviously that my phone was warm with task last evening. Mentions, inquiries, questions ... I am most likely one of the very first Iger obtaining problems each day, as it should be!
Many people are asking me today what will take place next so I made a decision to create this message.
The interested feature of this whole story and our Instagram individuals experience is that we seem to act in a different way depending upon the social media networks we make use of.
-- A lot of us are deeply involved with the Instagram App itself as well as state to be addicted. There is a solid sensation of stickyness with Instagram's expanding community. A real sensation of becoming part of it via the neighborhood. That's why we additionally got exactly what totals up to an unique concern of Android' s attack right into the Instagram globe, we are afraid that it might ruin our perfect little world
-- Most of us have actually no suggestion of who has our pictures rights as well as which 3rd party can use it (same as in Facebook )
-- Everybody have Facebook account.
-- A big part of our Instagram Pics are day-to-day as well as normally shared to our very own Facebook wall surfaces and accounts.
-- Inning accordance with a current study, as much as 12.5% of the pictures uploaded to Twitter could be from Instagram.
-- Our very own Instagramers Network of more than 270 local teams around the world is organized around Facebook Profiles and we have a private team of over 200 "ManIgers" arranging occasions, instawalks, exhibits, sharing ideas, giving suggestions ...
So why are we so afraid of Facebook?
As Net users we won our independence and also autonomy in our choices. We do not intend to rely upon establishments or firms any longer. Instagram until today was like a little "family" made up by a couple of young people that established an amazing application as well as changed our lives ... They made use of to respond to directly via the helpdesk facility, @Josh developed on Sunday to release "The week on Instagram" on their blog as well as there was an actual harmony between customers and owners of the application therefore naturally, we are left questioning exactly what will certainly occur now.
In a photo I posted yesterday in @Igers Account on Instagram (see here in the best side) I received more than 220 unfavorable remarks concerning the purchase. There is no question that some people are actually disturbed could believe their rights will certainly not be valued and that it will possibly smell organisation and marketing all over.
However we have to be aware that our favorite application can just survive if there is a sensible organisation model behind.
I would wrap up that Facebook already has a billion customers and that they are absolutely not seeking for 30 million Instagram individuals to boost their member ranks. Not at all. Most of us are currently Facebookers and Mark already has all our individual information. In addition, Zuckerberg has actually not demonstrated any interested in merging both Brands and also Solutions (at the very least for the moment). He recognizes we do not act similarly in each social networks platform we come from which we act differently relying on our motivations. Merging both platforms under the Facebook umbrella would certainly provoke a huge migration to other photo-sharing apps like Eye' em or Picplz.
I actually do think this deal is much more an inquiry of method as well as keeping Google as well as other competitors away (Google had recently shown interest for IG). I directly assumed that Instagramwould fit better with Twitter. It made more sense to me but it's seems that Jack Dorsey is really delighted with his Instagram Shares worth today as he was one of the first round resources fund financier.
I believe that (for the very least a few months, perhaps a year ...) there will certainly be no crucial changes in our Instagram Application which all the same, it is pointless to attempt to prepare better than that.
A lot more the one million Androiders registered last week and also nothing actually took place. So why should we be terrified of Facebook this time around?
