Instagram Celebrates 300 Million Users, Which is More than Twitter

There's apparently Over 300 Million People on Instagram - and they're Really Sharing those Photos: to the Tune of 70 Million Stills and Videos Every Day. The User Count Puts it Above Twitter, although it's still Far Behind the Number Using Facebook -- which, Well, Owns Instagram. In the Last Year, it's Added a 'People' Tab to Showcase Notable Accounts, while Instagram's Spin-Off Video App, the Addictive, 'Hyperlapse', also Launched in August -- Giving a Better Reason to Post Videos. While it Might Have Reached a New User Milestone, Instagram's Now Attempting to Hack Away at that Number: you Might Have Noticed a Little Notification Inside the App Saying that, the Team was Purging Spam Accounts - Warning, your Follower Count May Drop. Meanwhile, Celebrities, Brands and Other Well-Monied Types are Being Granted with Verified Badges, Starting Today. Apparently, Mat Smith The Brand still Needs Some Work.
