But then, I guess there might be a billion (still) photos taken every day? much more than that. I wonder how many, then. Good example of a Fermi problem. I'd guessed (without googling) a billion smartphones with plenty of people not taking many photos. Although I'll often take a couple of hundred photos on a day's shooting it's probably not 1000 a month (although I could see this going up as burst modes get better). Deliberately not counting things like CCTV. |

Deliberately not counting things like CCTV. you might not take very many, but others make up for it. more than a billion photos are uploaded to google photos every day and that's just one service: https://techcrunch.com/2017/05/17/go...rs-on-android- 500m-on-google-photos/ The product now has over 500 million monthly active users that upload 1.2 billion photos onto the service every day. additional photos are uploaded to facebook, instagram and numerous others, and then there's all of the photos that are never uploaded anywhere, or maybe sent to another person (e.g., texting) or deleted. https://blog.forever.com/forever-blo...photos-were-ta ken-last-year 2017 was an amazing year, and we took a lot of photos - about 7.5 trillion, in fact. To reach this number, we broke down the information available to us and did some careful analysis. Photos taken is defined as any picture snapped, including those that are immediately deleted. That's why this number may seem high at first - we often forget about every picture we take and only consider those that we store and share. 7.5 trillion photos in one year is over 20 billion photos taken per day. they estimate 8.8 billion photos in 2018, or 24 billion per day. |

Thanks for that. I'm not too unhappy to be only out by a factor of 20. Particularly as the "upload to google photos" will almost all be from people who have ticked the box, which is something I am very reluctant to do. I've probably got a terabyte or so on my NAS and other external drives, and I don't at the moment fancy paying the current commercial rates for that (obviously it is going to come down). |

I've probably got a terabyte or so on my NAS and other external drives, and I don't at the moment fancy paying the current commercial rates for that (obviously it is going to come down). there is no monetary cost for google photos. one thing online services offer that nases normally do not is being able to access any photo from anywhere. you don't need to also have copies on your phone and laptop. another is offsite backup. it's possible to set up outside access to one's own nas, but making sure it's secure is non-trivial, plus most apps aren't designed to link to it anyway. |
