   I ran across this in a newsletter I got this morn. Since it seems to go
   along with Tina's post I thought I would post it. This is a quote from
   The Big Lie in Tech Today, by Michael A. Robinson, Defense + Tech
   Specialist, Money Morning, June 5, 2013


   Quote
   Here's the thing. Noted tech analyst Mary Meeker delivered a powerful
   message last week that turned the industry on its ear.

   Speaking at the D: All Things Digital conference in southern
   California, Meeker revealed a stat that explains the force behind the
   unprecedented wave of tech innovation that's fueling the market's huge
   rally.

   Meeker noted that people are using the Web to share roughly 500 million
   photos.

   Not monthly, mind you. Not even weekly, but every single day.

   As incredible as that sounds, it actually gets better -- the number is
   set to double in the next year...

   No, that's not a misprint. By the end of 2014, we'll be sharing some 1
   billion photos every 24 hours, or 41.6 million per hour.

   Talk about a tidal wave...

   As recently as 2009, shutterbugs exchanged on any given day roughly 75
   million photos. So, we're talking about a more than 10-fold increase in
   roughly six years.
   end quote
   Certainly not all of the photos are on topic, but the numbers are
   staggering.
