3 Months To The First Million Users, Just 6 Weeks To The Second Million For Instagram
The service has just hit 2 million users. They tweeted the milestone earlier, and I’ve confirmed it with the company. This comes just six weeks after the million mark milestone.
Instagram’s size leading up to the important SXSW conference (which starts in a few weeks) has to intimidate rivals. But their rate of growth is now even more intimidating. And it’s crazy when you consider that they’re still iOS-only. And when I say that, you might think I mean they don’t have an Android app or a BlackBerry app, etc. And that’s all true. But they don’t even have a web presence that you can sign up at!
Well, not just yet, at least.
When this thing hits the web and then Android, it looks primed to explode. Though rival PicPlz, which has recently been pushing its Android version hard, may have something to say about that. The next SXSW war?
