Facebook Buying Instagram Makes Perfect Sense. Mark Zuckerberg announced this morning that Facebook has "agreed to acquire" Instagram for a cool $1 billion.
The tiny team that took over the mobile world will now work at Facebook. Instagram launched on Android last week, much to the chagrin of many special-snowflake iPhone users, and this news is sure to bum them out even further. But Facebook rules photos, and Instagram is the new camera. This deal makes perfect sense. Facebook reportedly failed to cut a deal for Instagram last year, and then it began working on Instagram-like photo filters of its own.
Yet Instagram didn't have a business. A billion dollars sounds like a lot for an app that generates $0. Facebook is now the big screen for viewing Instagram photos. Sam Odio, Facebook's Photos product manager from April 2010 to June 2011, says "the 1BN acquisition price is almost certainly the result of a bidding war. Эффект Джанибекова.

Reddit: the front page of the internet. WebGL Globe. Account Activity Opt in - Account Settings. Visual Basic. Visual Basic is a third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft for its COM programming model first released in 1991.
Microsoft intends Visual Basic to be relatively easy to learn and use.[1][2] Visual Basic was derived from BASIC and enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects.
A programmer can create an application using the components provided by the Visual Basic program itself. Over time the community of programmers have developed new third party components, keeping this programming language to modern standards.[3][4][5][6][7] Programs written in Visual Basic can also use the Windows API, which requires external function declarations.
