This data never sleeps: every minute giant amounts of it are being generated from every phone, website and application across the Internet. The question: how much is created, and where does it all come from?<span id="more-51951"></span><br />To put things into perspective, this infographic by <a href="http://www.domo.com/blog/2012/06/how-much-data-is-created-every-minute/?dkw=socf3">DOMO</a> breaks down the amount of data generated on the Internet every minute. YouTube users upload 48 hours of video, Facebook users share 684,478 pieces of content, Instagram users share 3,600 new photos, and Tumblr sees 27,778 new posts published. These are sites many people around the world use on a regular basis, and will continue to use in the future. The global Internet population now represents 2.1 billion people, and with every website browsed, status shared, and photo uploaded, we leave a digital trail that continually grows the hulking mass of big data. See where else big data is coming from in the infographic below<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgN6MGDXtGwLPbS0t3kOCFiMEYUZ-8DfV3Kr9EddO1hlhJYBinWYWQpqktqxR6oCvlhXatOrr7_Hfgdn5IAPXlO1nx2RBO1hWgtGxss0XwFa_0rncEiHVGXsbezCR9OEcJPHu0LoQpJso-/s1600/DOMO-Data-in-One-Minute.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgN6MGDXtGwLPbS0t3kOCFiMEYUZ-8DfV3Kr9EddO1hlhJYBinWYWQpqktqxR6oCvlhXatOrr7_Hfgdn5IAPXlO1nx2RBO1hWgtGxss0XwFa_0rncEiHVGXsbezCR9OEcJPHu0LoQpJso-/s640/DOMO-Data-in-One-Minute.jpg" width="402" /></a></div>
