instagram – Dr. Ray Pastore's Instructional Technology Blog https://raypastore.com/wordpress Thu, 24 May 2012 19:23:38 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.7.15 166124113 Facebook releases Instagram clone for iPhone and iPad https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/05/facebook-releases-instagram-clone-for-iphone-and-ipad/ https://raypastore.com/wordpress/2012/05/facebook-releases-instagram-clone-for-iphone-and-ipad/#respond Thu, 24 May 2012 19:23:38 +0000 https://raypastore.com/wordpress/?p=1255 Well this is kinda surprising. They just bought instagram and then release their own clone which they obviously have been working on for a while. The app is only available via iTunes so it is not available for Android yet, although I assume it will be very soon. But the question is, why did Facebook buy Instagram for 1 Billion if they were just going to release their own version anyway? Was it a copyright issue? I would doubt it considering there are 20 other Instagram clones in the market.

Anyway, here is a link to the app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook-camera/id525898024?ls=1&mt=8

About Instagram – Instagram has 31 million users and only 13 employees. They offer a free app for iPhone/iPad and just last week (maybe 2 weeks ago) offered an Android version that is still a little unstable.

Was this company worth 1 billion? There are many other apps that do the exact same thing. Couldnt facebook just create their own app and compete? I guess not. I guess the 31 million customers was key.

I wish the Instagram founders much luck in their future endeavors – have fun spending your money and if you want to, you can give me some:)

For those that do not know what this app does: It give you the ability to make your photos look edited with the click of a button. It is a nice app and I do recommend it for both Apple and Android users.
