Instagram cuts off Twitter photo integration - Telegraph.co.uk

Instagram used to work closely with Twitter but the relationship has suffered since Facebook bought the app. Instagram has since offered tighter integration with Facebook and has launched its own web pages for the first time so that users can see their photographs online.

Last month, Facebook proposed changes to its data-sharing rules that would allow the social network to use data collected by Instagram to "tell us information about you" and "improve the quality of ads."

The change will allow Facebook, which has more than a billion registered users, to build more complete profiles of its users - and target advertisements - using people's personal data from its social network and from Instagram.

According to the New York Times, Twitter is working on Instagram-style photo filters for its own app.
