If we learned anything from Thanksgiving, it's that people love to Instagram their holidays. Turkeys, stuffing, table settings: you Amaro'd it all. It was the service's best day ever. There were 10 million pictures Instagrammed on Thanksgiving. So it's not a logistical stretch to imagine the holiday season -- Hanukkah starts tonight! -- will be big business for Instagram, too. Christmas day will probably be especially big since it combines dinner, like Thanksgiving, and presents.

The move makes enough sense, because Instagram is owned by Facebook and not Twitter, but it still sucks for the rest of us. The two companies are now in a budding rivalry over photo-sharing, so this is it, it's war, we guess.
