Here’s our daily recap of what happened in online marketing today, as reported on Marketing Land and other places across the web.

From Marketing Land:

  • Social Network Demographics: Pew Study Shows Who Uses Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest & Others

    There are stereotypes attached to certain social networks about the makeup of their user base. LinkedIn is for business people. Facebook has a lot of older Americans. Pinterest is for girls.

But lots of people were and it appears the initial run of pre-orders has “sold out.” Shipping and availability dates have now been pushed […]

  • New Mobile Pages Substantiate That Instagram Isn’t Just An App

    When Istagram launched, users had to be iPhone toting users who downloaded the app. Since then, an Android app has launched, and a web presence has been created — making the service much more than just an app. Today, Instagram announced new mobile photo pages, even furthering their stake as a full well-rounded social network.
