10 Free Web Services For Instagram Addicts

In early April, the news of acquisition of Instagram by Facebook for a Billion Dollar grand price was everywhere. The user count of Instagram increased in multiple folds after it was launched for Android in the same April.

I recognize that Instagram is an application which can make simple photographs look really beautiful and can make user addictive to it. Even my brother is so much addictive to the application that whenever we are traveling, he can be spotted taking snaps of almost everything he can see and then processing it with Instagram.

Even I’m getting used to it and liking the application slowly. Sometimes I also like giving Vintage effects to photographs and sharing them with my Friends on Facebook and Twitter.

Instagram itself is a mobile social network and outside of this, there’s no way to access images that people upload. Actually that’s the theory in practice but thanks to the API that Instagram has made available to developers. We can now find an interesting ecosystem of applications that revolve around Instagram and allow us to access the network, for example, from your browser, offering more convenient access to the updates made by our friends and following.

If you are an Instagram addict like my brother then you must take a moment to have a look at the below given 10 web services to enjoy more of Instagram :

Webstagram

Sometime ago, a friend of mine suggested me to try Webstagram, a web service which gives us the ability to access Instagram through the desktop browser. The service is accessible to both Instagram registered users and general visitors who are not a part of this network. Anyone can search for users and images without having to be validated.

Webstagram uses the Instagram api to validate with the network. With this service, users can even click like someone’s images/photographs or comment on them. You can view photos of the people you follow, browse popular photos, get RSS feeds etc. Webstagram is one of the Best Instagram Web Viewer.
