Instagram safe for now
by Justin Horn on Sep 6th, 2012 @ 11:23 amAs we said from the beginning, we are committed to building and growing Instagram independently. Instagram will continue to serve its community, and we will help Instagram continue to grow by using Facebook’s strong engineering team and infrastructure. We also can’t wait to work with the talented Instagram team to improve the mobile experience.
So it looks like Facebook will not swallow Instagram, but instead let it continue to thrive. This is probably a good move, no reason to piss off a bunch of Instagram users that are probably Facebook users already. It’s pretty clear that Facebook really wanted to go after Instagram team for their talents in mobile, not buy more Facebook users.
