I knew it had to happen at some point. Instagram is just too fun to not be ruined by e-commerce.........
Instagram is working on a new standalone app dedicated to shopping, The Verge has learned. The app — which may be called IG Shopping — will let users browse collections of goods from merchants that they follow and purchase them directly within the app, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Bright side: I see the word "standalone" mentioned. Hopefully, that means they won't mess with the original Instagram, which I consider near-perfect for photo sharing.
Grace & Peace & Love to you all -
