Instagram, a pivotal app within Meta’s portfolio, proved its colossal influence in 2021, boasting an impressive $32.4 billion in ad revenue, equating to 27% of Meta’s total earnings.
This revelation, stemming from a recent court filing, underscores Instagram’s pivotal role within Meta’s financial landscape.
To put this in perspective, Instagram’s ad revenue surpassed that of Google’s YouTube, which generated $28.8 billion in ad earnings during the same period. Unlike YouTube, which allocates 55% of ad revenue to content creators, Instagram operates on a significantly lower payout model, relying heavily on user-generated content.
These figures emerged from a court filing by Meta, aiming to quash a federal antitrust lawsuit, showcasing the rapid ascent of Instagram under Meta’s stewardship.
Acquired for $1 billion in 2012, Instagram has burgeoned from a revenue-free startup to a powerhouse, overseen by former Facebook executive Adam Mosseri.
Considering the exponential growth trajectory, with Instagram’s revenue climbing from $11.3 billion in 2018 to $32.4 billion in 2021, projections suggest Instagram could be valued comparably to YouTube, potentially in the ballpark of $400 billion. Applying Instagram’s revenue share to Meta’s current market capitalization of $1.34 trillion yields a speculative value of $440 billion.

In the tranquil island of Jukdo, adjacent to Ulleungdo in South Korea, an unexpected star has emerged on Google Maps – Maru, the golden retriever. With over 1,000 appearances in Street View shots, Maru has become the beloved tour guide of this picturesque locale, endearing himself to visitors and locals alike.
Maru’s journey began when a Google Maps photographer ventured to Jukdo to capture its breathtaking landscapes. Little did they anticipate that their expedition would be accompanied by a furry companion. Maru, with his friendly disposition, acted as the perfect guide, even patiently waiting for the camera person if they momentarily strayed in the woods.
Known to the island’s inhabitants for seven years, Maru is described as ‘super nice’ to all who cross his path. His unexpected fame on Google Maps came to light when an eagle-eyed Reddit user shared the discovery, affectionately dubbing him the ‘Google Earth guy’.
The internet swiftly fell in love with Maru, with many expressing their delight at seeing him in the Street View shots. Some even humorously suggested they’d prefer navigation guided by Maru, while others lauded the idea of having this ‘good girl’ featured in every shot.
Maru’s heartwarming tale echoes that of other animal companions who have become local landmarks, emphasizing the profound connection between humans and animals. As Maru continues to spread joy and warmth on Jukdo, his presence serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures found in unexpected encounters and the enduring companionship offered by our furry friends.
