In just nine months, Instagram wooed 100 million new amateur photographers, bringing its total user base to
400 million. Sure, parent company Facebook still slays with almost 1.5 billion monthly active users, but for a social network, Instagram’s announcement is nothing to sneeze at.</p><figure class="medium right" itemprop="associatedMedia" itemscope="" itemtype="

Even more impressive than its swift growth is how international Instagram’s reach is. The network said that 75 percent of its community lives outside the U.S., with more than 50 percent of the newest 100 million users residing in Europe and Asia. This makes Instagram’s places search filter more useful if you’re looking for somewhere specific, or if you’re in the mood to explore, the Trending Places section is full of stunning images from exotic locales.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2985476/social-media/more-users-more-ads-instagram-hits-400-million-milestone.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
