Internet Trends

Gary Pattillo, reference librarian at UNC-Chapel Hill notes some Internet trends I found remarkable in his June 2013 Fast FActs from C&RL News.

2.4 billion Internet users, average 8% annual growth rate

Global digital info created/share grew 9 times in five years to nearly 2 zettabytes (2 trillioin gigabytes) as of 2011.

500 million plus phots are uploaded and shared every day.

100 hours of video are uploaded per minute to YouTube.

...For more see 2013 Internet Trends by Meeker and Wu on Kliner Perkins Caufield & Byers website.
