Love it. Hate it.

My love hate relationship with Facebook continues.

I’ve noticed that Facebook have decided to add an Instagram logo to every photo I post from the service. To me this is unwanted branding on my images and therefore my property.

What next Facebook, banner ads asking people to download the app?

I was getting bored of having to decide which photo sharing app I wanted to use and Facebook has made the decision for me. Bye bye Instagram (and possibly Facebook again too).

Social Media is meant to be that. Social. For the user. Not an excuse to advertise services or change functionality and terms without consulting your users.

I believe with the current share price crash Facebook is about to spark the next Internet bubble burst.

Remember Zukerberg, you’re now at the mercy of your shareholders and most of them are probably your users. Your consumers. Piss them off and the tides will turn.
