Instagram is getting [more] social

Fri 29 June 2012 12:00, Tamara Yadvichuk

The popular picture-sharing app Instagram has updated its browser view with new social features allowing users to like and comment on pictures on the web. It is the second major change the app has made since their 1-billion acquisition by Facebook.

The first update made by Instagram three days ago brought the option to “Explore” and search with usernames and #hashtags, and now the app has made a few changes in the design of their website version. Apart from adding comments and likes represented by little hearts (©), they redesigned their photo page to show larger images, and added a blue band on the side.

Despite the fact that Instagram didn’t really announce any of these changes, they are already being discussed in the online community. So what is the next step going to be?
