But how many additional teens are there on Instagram now?

Would be interesting to know. Teens leave Facebook to go to instagram.. which is owned by Facebook.
This seems to be the case, which makes FB's acquisition very smart. Instagram seems to be, from my anecdotal evidence and the heavy promotion I see of it on Tumblr, growing very rapidly. FB has nothing to worry about when they have one of the trendy "simple" social networks in their camp. However, I would find it disappointing as Mark Z. that the FB platform itself would be dying with the younger generation.
