<p>The torn-asunder relationship between Twitter and Facebook has reached its scorched-earth, <em>Wuthering Heights</em>-like final stages. Having fallen into a hurried marriage with Facebook, Instagram has cut ties with Twitter, yanking all <a href="http://betabeat.com/2012/12/facebook-instagram-cards-twitter-photos-jack-dorsey/">photos</a> from your Twitter feed (and presumably burning any incriminating love letters).</p>
<p>Now Twitter is moving on. Today the company <a href="http://blog.twitter.com/2012/12/twitter-photos-put-filter-on-it.html">announced </a>the advent of a suite of tools blatantly meant to replace the functionality lent by Instagram:<!--more--></p>
<blockquote><p>Starting today, you’ll be able to edit and refine your photos, right from Twitter. The latest versions of Twitter for iPhone and Twitter for Android introduce a few new ways to enhance the images you tweet. We’re grateful to our partner, <a href="http://aviary.com/">Aviary</a>, for powering our filters and effects.</p></blockquote>
<p>Hear that? Twitter is so grateful to its (New York-based!) partner Aviary. You know, the partner waiting there in the wings when Instagram ran off with that dashing Mark Zuckerberg.</p>
