Hi Guys

Instagram will shortly be adding ads to its feeds, and will also be trying out a Shop Now button to allow users to make direct purchases. Do you think the Facebook-owned company is wrong to do this? Adam Padilla of BrandFire thinks that it's a mistake. Personally, I think it will be fine as long as it's done with subtlety and isn't too in your face. Facebook wants to see a return on their investment, and I can understand why they are making this move. What do you think? Here's the article I read:
