Posted on May 19, 2014

Google has joined Instagram. Instagram is owned by Facebook so Google is joining its rival's service. Google's first entry is a clip of the Rubik's cube game they posted on google.com.

Google says in the announcement, "Today on our homepage we're celebrating the Rubik's Cube, which got us thinking - maybe we could do more squares? Hello Instagram!"

Google also tweeted the news.

Update 8-14-14: Google remain active on Instagram. The search giant has been posting new images about every other day or every three days since joining the service.
