Instagram Has Record-Breaking Thanksgiving Day

More holiday, food related pictures posted to the social network than ever before

Did you post a picture of your Thanksgiving meal to Instagram last week? Chances are you contributed to the social network’s busiest day in it’s two year history. Users posted more than 10 million holiday- and food-related photos on Nov. 22, according to the Instagram blog. Between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., photos were uploaded at a rate of more than 200 per second. Instagram and food were a match made in heaven, long before its record-breaking Turkey Day. More than 19 million of the site’s photos include the hashtag #food. Instagram’s user base has more than doubled since Facebook moved to acquire it last April. (Washington Post)
