Infographic: An Internet Minute in 2013 vs. 2014

The people at TechSpartan.co.uk (via Geekologie) put together a cool infographic that breaks down the number of things that happen across social media platforms in one minute on the internet. The numbers speak for themselves, but it's not surprising to see an increase across the board in categories like tweets, photos posted to Instagram, and apps downloaded from the Apple store. The biggest surprise, for me anyway, is to see how much of a massive increase in YouTube uploads there were from 2013 to 2014. There are entire subcultures that play out on YouTube that I'm not even aware of, and since it's still the most dominant video site on the web, it looks like Google made a good decision buying them for $1.65 billion back in 2006.
