Justin Bieber Takes A Picture Of Traffic, Instagram Usage Explodes
A few minutes ago, the Instagram team noticed their servers blowing up. What happened? Were they under attack? DDoS? No. Bieber happened. Yes, Justin Bieber just signed up for Instagram. And he tweeted out his first picture to his 11 million+ followers. The result? Boom. After I saw the tweet, I reached out to Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom, and he confirmed the massive influx as a result of Bieber. He us Bieber is gaining about 50 followers a minute at this point. All thanks to one picture. Of traffic. It has 234 likes already. And that number is also rapidly growing. Systrom says he's also getting one comment every 10 seconds or so. These numbers are unprecedented for the already popular photo-sharing service.
