Instagram introduced profiles this week, becoming more like its big brother Facebook, some say.

Improving Your Image
In profile. This week, the photo sharing social site unveiled what some fans think is its crowning achievement so far. The company?s blog introduced the new feature as something demanded by members?Web profiles. You can share your profile with others you want to see your photos.

Forward facing. If all this sounds familiar, yes, it reminds everybody a little bit of Facebook, the social network that acquired Instagram earlier this year. But the evolution may be more than just a family resemblance. It?s a natural next step for an application that is pushing photo sharing on the social Web to the next level. What do you think?

Social media myths. If anything, the rise of Instagram has only encouraged more complaints by those who just don?t get it. They ask who wants to see all these photos you?re sharing?or read about what you just ate, or know where you just checked in.

The one list Instagram didn?t make. Interestingly, the one list of big photo sites online Instagram doesn?t make is the list of free photo sites bloggers and other content creators use to add images to their posts and articles. Blogger Leah Singer doesn?t even mention the biggest photo sharing site on the web in her post, but commenter Martin Lindeskog points out the social site will likely soon introduce a similar feature.
