# Still liking Instagram for iPhone photography? Portland’s Gramfeed will make you fall in love all over again

While [Portland lost its unique tie](http://siliconflorist.com/2010/11/04/love-instagram-iphone-photography-reason-love-portland/ "Love Instagram for iPhone photography? Well, here’s another reason to love it, Portland") to the iPhone photo app [Instagram](http://instagram.com/ "Instagram") when they opened a San Francisco office, there is no love lost on the app around here. People around these parts continue to snap, filter, and share photos with Intagram to the tune of thousands of local photos are uploaded daily. There’s even a [Portland Instagram Group](http://www.facebook.com/#!/home.php?sk=group_177441705621883 "Portland Instagram Group").

But you know what there’s not? Decent Web access to Instagram photos. The experience has been pretty much constrained to one-off pics or the stream on your iPhone. Until now. Meet [Gramfeed](http://www.gramfeed.com/ "Gramfeed").

Much in the same way that [FoursquareX](http://codebutler.github.com/foursquarex/ "FoursquareX") freed Foursquare from the mobile device, Gramfeed gives you the ability to view, like, and share your Instagram stream from within your Web browser. And it was all built by Portland’s own [Rakshith Krishnappa](http://twitter.com/krisrak "Rakshith Krishnappa").

[According to ReadWriteWeb](http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/gramfeed_brings_instagram_the_one_thing_its_missin.php "Gramfeed Brings Instagram the One Thing it's Missing: A Website"):

> Rakshith Krishnappa says that he hacked together Gramfeed over the weekend that is “designed to be a Twitter-like Web client for Instagram.”

> Gramfeed not only makes it easy to browse your Instagram feed on the Web, giving you the ability to see much larger version of photos, but it also makes it easy to share your and friend’s photos on Twitter and Facebook.

Simple. Straightforward. Great use of the Instagram API. And exactly what the Instagram users wanted.

Genius.

\[UPDATE\]

Even better? [Gramfeed now has a mapping page](http://www.gramfeed.com/instagram/map "Gramfeed map"), hacked together during the [Red Hat Map Hack hosted at PIE](http://siliconflorist.com/2011/03/03/red-hat-max-ogden-team-map-hack-night-geolocation-hackathon/ "Red Hat Map Hack").
