You mean there was an issue with Facebook login..? It should only try to open a file from your computer if you're submitting a story and try to attach an image. Re mobile: It's too complex for a small screen, so there's a mobile page that just says there will be an app soon.

No i logged in without fb (just to see that experience first). so this is used more to kind of geo see what is going on around you? wouldn't an instagram be the best integration because then you can see events that are going on around you?

At first I thought I could just try to pull in geo-tagged feeds from Instagram, Twitter, and other sources. The trouble is, most of that content is not actually about the location. Someone might say, "I love lasagna!" and it's geotagged nearby. Unfortunately, I found there's simply too much noise for that approach to work.

Edit: The answer to your first question is, yes, that's exactly what it's for!: to see news within a certain radius of where you are.
