Read more...Earlier this week, Facebook bought photo-sharing app Instagram for $1 billion, or a hefty $33 per user. What does this mean for other photo-sharing apps? It could mean they're valued a lot higher than they're currently priced. Or it could mean they'll be next in line to be scooped up.

Instagram is certainly on the rise, but if it wants to challenge the biggest photo sharing websites, and turn its rapidly expanding user base into real revenue, then it is going to have to compete on the next level as well.
