The digital image - in numbers

In 2017, it is projected 1.3 trillion photos will be taken. Compare that to 2000, when Kodak estimated that 80 billion analog photos were take (which has since dropped dramatically).

From a Google 2016 Blog post:

"Now 200 million of you are using Google Photos each month. We’ve delivered more than 1.6 billion animations, collages and movies, among other things. You’ve collectively freed up 13.7 petabytes of storage on your devices—it would take 424 years to swipe through that many photos! We’ve also applied 2 trillion labels, and 24 billion of those have been for ... selfies. "
