People love posting pictures of their food … blah, blah, blah. So, no surprise, the photo-sharing service Instagram rushed out the “news” that it had its busiest day so far, when users posted more than 10 million Thanksgiving-related photos. The Facebook-owned company said in a blog post that during peak hours on Thursday, people were posting more than 200 photos every second, double the amount from the day before. By comparison, Instagram users uploaded around 800,000 photos during Hurricane Sandy, and more than 100,000 images on Election Day. (And, yes, this is what a slow news day looks like here at AllThingsD.)
