Facebook har gennemført et større opkøb. Det er Instagram, der er et socialt online medie med deling af billeder til Facebook, Twitter og Tumblr.

Ifølge flere medier, har Facebook betalt 1 milliard USD for Instagram. Ud over at dele billeder, kan man også redigere billeder med Instagram, så de for eksempel ser gamle ud eller får en helt anden stemning.

This is an important milestone for Facebook because it's the first time we've ever acquired a product and company with so many users. We don't plan on doing many more of these, if any at all. But providing the best photo sharing experience is one reason why so many people love Facebook and we knew it would be worth bringing these two companies together.
