How do you feel about people messaging you on Instagram? Seems a little weird doesn't it? But don't strike that off just yet because new reports are indicating they are working on a messaging feature.

GigaOm reported last month that Instagram was preparing to launch a new private-messaging feature and claimed that it would pop up in an updated version of Instagram before the end of the year.

Techcrunch revealed information obtained from an anonymous source that shows several users have been given personal Instagram.com email addresses.

Currently, there are no further details about what the personal email addresses might mean, or how they would work for Instagram users.

What do you think? There are one too many messaging systems around as it is. Would you use this one?
