Instagram, the popular photo sharing service offers a remarkable functionality and is widely popular among iOS and Android users. Instagram was recently acquired by Facebook leaving the end users skeptic about its future, most of whom are now looking for ways to backup their precious and beautiful photos offline on their computer. Neither Instagram has a web version nor it offers a way to download the album photos or save filtered photos to SD card. Fortunately, there are some great online services that overcome this problem by offering the ability to export, download your photos easily.

Instaport is one free and smart web service that provides a simple way to export or backup all your Instagram photos to your local hard drive. Unlike some other services, it lets you download all photos by packing them in a single archive which one can later upload or share with anyone. It also offers some ‘Advanced Options’ for those not interested in downloading entire pictures. This way you can export a collection of recently taken photos, photos took between a particular time interval, and photos tagged with a specific tag. The option of porting to Facebook, Flickr, RSS isn’t possible at the moment and is said to be added soon.

To Backup your Instagram Photos using Instaport, simply visit instaport.me, login with your Instagram username and password. Then authorize the app to grant access to your photos, friend lists, and profile data. Now select the download .zip file option or any other advanced option, and click Start Export. After export is complete, download the zip archive and extract it using an archive program like WinRAR. That’s it!

It’s time for Instagram users to delight as they can now view their Instagram photos directly in a browser using Webbygram, a web version of the most popular photo sharing service ‘Instagram’. Instagram was recently acquired by Facebook for a whooping $1 billion and their newly launched Android app has already crossed 10 million downloads.

Webbygram is a free and great web service developed by Brenden Mulligan, that offers an alternate and efficient way to view your Instagram stream from web using a desktop, laptop, etc. which was till date accessible only via Instagram mobile apps, available for iOS and Android. Fortunately, it’s now possible to see Instagram images on big screen through this unofficial web version of Instagram. Webbygram boasts a simplistic and neat interface, displays Instagram timeline in chronological order as seen on the official mobile app and it overcomes the limitation of using apps.

You can easily view the number of likes and comments for a specific picture, image caption and liking a photo is a click away. Clicking on an individual photo opens its particular webpage where one can post comments or quickly share the post to social networks. By default, webbygram shows ‘Popular Photos’ but you can login using your Instagram username and password (requires OAuth) to view your Instagram stream. You can even share your Instagram profile online, accessible through Webbygram. For instance, catch my instagram updates at webbygram.com/user/mayurjango.

Frankly speaking, I was badly looking for a similar service. Webbygram is really amazing and delivers a Instagram like experience. Do give it a try out!

Certainly, there are lot of free File Sharing sites that allow users to upload their data to cloud and share it easily with their family, friends, co-workers, etc. However, most services lets you share stuff via their web interface only, which isn’t much convenient for users who frequently upload & share files across the web.
