Within a week of finally releasing its Android version, Instagram, the social photo-sharing app for smartphones, has been sold to Facebook for a hefty $1 billion. Now, users of the service are up in arms, and some are threatening to leave altogether.

There is no telling what this sale means for Instagram, other than its founders are now incredibly wealthy. Mark Zuckerberg stated that the Instagram team would be joining Facebook, so there’s hope that those employees might be able to make Facebook’s photo-sharing much better. But Instagram users aren’t happy with their cool, new, hip app now being a part of that ancient social-medial monster, Facebook.

It’s the kind of behavior that makes me question who uses Instagram. I suppose it might be somewhat justified, though, as I’m sure many Instagram users saw the app as something that should be completely separate from their other social media.
