In just over four years
Instagram has reached the 300 million user mark globally, making the social
network bigger than Twitter.
Twitter has 284 million active
users accessing the service, putting it just behind the Facebook owned photo
and video sharing network. Facebook still trumps them both however, with a
staggering 1.35 billion monthly active users as of September 2014.
In an announcement on its
blog, Kevin Systrom CEO of Instagram recognised the milestone saying: “Over the
past four years, what began as two friends with a dream has grown into a global
community that shares more than 70 million photos and videos each day.
“Instagram is home to
creativity in all of its forms, a place where you can find everything from
images of the Nile River to the newest look from Herschel Supply or a peek
inside the mind of Taylor Swift.
“We’re thrilled to watch this
community thrive and witness the amazing connections people make over shared
passions and journeys.”
