Instagram photo sharing
I just discovered this cool ap and wish we could use it at Runboard. It is called Instagram and it basicly allows a user to post photo's and pics to several of the social networks and to e-mail accounts all at once instead of having to do it one site at a time. That would be so cool if we had a way to do that from a post here at Runboard I think...

Re:
On further review and thought maybe a new button inside the "share" feature could be added to share posts (which would include any pics in the post) with all social networks in the users list... Wait, we don't have a list like that in the profiles so that would have to be added first... back to thinking

Re: Instagram photo sharing
From Instagram's homepage:
quote: Snap a picture, choose a filter to transform its look and feel, then post to Instagram. Share to Facebook, Twitter, and Tumblr too – it's as easy as pie. It's photo sharing, reinvented.
I don't see where it says you can share them on all your networks all at once, and it basically sounds like an image host that people could already use for Runboard. Am I missing something here?

Re:
The sharing with all networks (or a list of networks) is how my original idea evolved from what Instagram does. I didn't mean to suggest they had that part down. It would be pretty cool if the photo sharing they provide could be shared at Runboard but I couldn't figure out a way to make that happen...

Re: Instagram photo sharing
Ah, ok. I misunderstood.
In order to 'share' on any of those networks, you would need to be logged into those accounts, or you'll get a prompt to login.
If we had a way for users to create a list of their social networks and a 'Share to all networks' link, it would have to open each network in its own tab, where each network would ask them to submit it if they're logged in to that network, or log into it if they're not. If someone had a long list of networks, this might actually be more headaches for the user than it's worth, freezing up browsers if there are a lot of networks on their list, etc.
To use Instagram with Runboard or any other service, wouldn't you need to have their app installed and be logged in through your phone? I suppose I could download the app and see...

Re: Instagram photo sharing
I managed to make it work, but photobucket is much easier.
