You'd have to be pretty happy if you were an Instagram shareholder (can't be too many for an unlisted startup). I think I took about 2 photos on Instagram and couldn't see the point (I know others do, I just prefer different tools).

It's a pretty amazing acquisition. I've also only used it a couple of times. I actually just deleted it from my phone last night as I went through a major App culling on my iPhone and Instagram was on the list. It's funny how this acquisition happened the day after i deleted it....

Cannot understand it, it's such a crap app, I prefer Awesome Camera (uploads to Smugmug) or Photogene or better still Snapseed.

Fascinating that it hit No. 1 on the App Store the day after this news broke. Completely counter-intuitive.
