Instagram goes online

Instagram has been planning to go on the desktop through instagram.com since end of last year.With the launch, users can now log in and browse their account online in an interface that mimics the mobile experience; they can also like photos by double clicking on them or pressing the like button, engage in a conversation underneath each post, or shrink the browser down to a single column so it’s more similar to the mobile feed.Fans, however, cannot upload photos from the web because “Instagram is about producing photos on the go, in real world, in real time,” wrote Kevin Systrom, Instagram co-founder on the company blog.“We believe that you should be able to access Instagram on a variety of different devices, any of which may be convenient to you at a given moment – including your desktop computer or tablet.”
