Bill Gates now has an Instagram account

You may say and so what? So Bill Gates opens an Instagram account?

However when the richest person in the world coughs, you need to know the reason.

Yes. Bill Gates finally identified one way to get to the millennials is to get an Instagram account. And his post was a picture of him in Tanzania, possibly carrying out some activities under the auspices of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. His handle is thisisbillgates

He says he will be sharing things he is learning through his foundation work and other interests through this medium

Even though he has only one post as shown below, he already has over 37,600 followers.

Hello from Tanzania, Instagram! I just had a great lunch with some amazing kids at Kicheba Primary School in Muheza and met Upendo Mwingira, a remarkable physician who has dedicated her career to fighting neglected tropical diseases. Melinda and I have been coming to Tanzania for many years now. I always love seeing how much progress the country has made to improve health and provide opportunity. Plus, the scenery is stunning. Whenever I travel to places like this, I wish others could come along and meet the people I get to meet. I have no doubt it would leave them as optimistic as I am about progress happening around the world. I’ll be sharing photos from my adventures here on Instagram, and I hope you’ll follow along.
