instaDM Brings Private Messaging to Instagram
blog.parse.com
on 02/01/2013
Excerpt: There are a lot of amazing apps out there taking the world by storm, especially as mobile devices and tablets become more widespread. Even the hottest new apps, however, aren’t perfect and that’s where clever innovators can fill in the gaps with a great idea. Parse-powered instaDM is one such innovation. When co-founders Cristian and Roman Castillo realized that the only way to communicate with other users in the mega-popular Instagram app was through public conversations, they decided to create a program that enabled private messaging. They clearly hit an area of need, experiencing 300,000 downloads in 10 days and growing to over 1. 5 million users to date.... read the full post.

Instagram Upset: Are marketers taking user-generated content for granted?
blog.compete.com
on 01/16/2013
Excerpt: Instagram lit a fire among its users with its new Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, announced in December in a short blog post (the changes were retracted two days later). The news spread fast and furiously on social media as users expressed their anger at the popular application for claiming ownership of personal photos. Celebrities and media outlets vowed to stop using Instagram. One user I followed posted a black photo on the app in protest of the changes. The same user has failed to leave Instagram and uploaded several photos since. The overall reaction was just an exacerbated bunch of hysteria as users did not understand the changes.... read the full post.

How a bogus claim about Instagram losing users made Facebook’s stock drop nearly 3% – Quartz
qz.com
on 12/28/2012
Excerpt: Facebook’s stock dropped 2. 9% in its first minutes of trading this morning. Investors were likely responding to a report in the New York Post that Instagram, the photo-sharing that Facebook acquired this year, “may have shed nearly a quarter of its daily active users” after changes to its terms of service rankled users earlier this month. The story cites AppData, which tracks usage of Facebook applications like FarmVille. Some users have connected their Instagram and Facebook accounts in a way that would show up in AppData’s metrics, but most have not. So when the Post says, “Instagram, which peaked at 16. 4 million active daily users the week it rolled out its policy change, had fallen to 12.... read the full post.

Analytics firm AppData pollutes web with sketchy Instagram info
blog.sfgate.com
on 12/28/2012
Excerpt: A couple weeks after a concentrated uproar over Instagram’s privacy policies — which were largely pointless anyway — analytics outfit AppData has told the New York Post that its data shows users are fleeing the service because of the terms of service announcement. The company’s data showed that Instagram peaked at 16. 4 million active daily users the week it rolled out its policy change but had plummeted to 12. 4 million as of Thursday. The problem is that they have no scientific footing to stand on here. First of all, I can’t find the survey where AppData actually asked users why they’re leaving Instagram.... read the full post.

Instagram Actually Lost Users During Backlash

on 12/28/2012
Excerpt: Social media freakouts don't usually convince people to leave services. But the latest privacy backlash seems to have left a mark on Instagram, and given a real boost to Flickr. posted about 3 days ago
A report this morning claims that Instagram lost millions of users in the backlash against its new terms of service, based on numbers from AppData. The chart of daily active users is pretty damning:
The numbers don't quite add up, however. For one, the backlash against Instagram — the real heat of the moment, such as there was one — peaked on Dec. 17 and Dec. 18. This drop came on the 24th, when the controversy had cooled.... read the full post.

Instagram Flap Shows Confusion Over Control of Content
bits.blogs.nytimes.com
on 12/27/2012
Excerpt: The ruckus (now lawsuit) over whether Instagram would use your pictures to make money has drawn new attention to an unresolved battle of the Web era: Who owns your stuff online? In a blog post on the company site last week, Instagram’s co-founder, Kevin Systrom, sought to reassure users that their “content,” in Web jargon, belongs to them. He pointed to the company’s Terms of Use, which spelled out that “Instagram does NOT claim ANY ownership rights in the text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, applications, or any other materials (collectively, “Content”) that you post on or through the Instagram Services. ”
He added in plainer terms, “We don’t own your photos — you do.... read the full post.
