Hey Guys i know i really dont post much in the news but i found this to be pretty bad, i was reading "The Verge" Today and i found a topic about how Linus's favorite Photosharing Via Instagram will be getting ad's. Facebook since they picked up Instagram has said that they will be monotizing it for money.... i find this to be a pretty bad idea, just like how i am turned away from using any fb on a computer even though i do anyway with all of the ad's that are placed and plackered all over. i thought i would share this to you guys because i have a feeling that the Instagram Following that it has now will die off because of the ad's.

I agree, Facebook (F-Bomb)'s up everything, they ruined the facebook experience by letting them tailor ads to the user, which is just cruel when i am addicted to t-shirts.... but i never thought that they would ruin instagram... apparently i was wrong...

I don't use Instagram much, but i think it is absolutely ridiculous to add add's. Like Facebook isn't earning enough money...

It feels as though no games ever leave the BETA stage anymore, until about 3 years after it officially releases. - Shd0w2 2014

I don't really use instagram but sometimes when I try to load a photo from a link I just get a blank screen lol. Guess Adblock will take care of this. :)

Clicking a close button every now and then to close an ad won't bother me but if they do it too much and go overboard then I'll see it as a problem. To me it's honestly going to depend on how it's implemented.
