YouTube users uploading 20 hours of video every minute

YouTube have recently pushed this crazy statistic out of the door: 20 hours of video footage is uploaded to YouTube every 60 seconds.

In fact, just in the time it took me to write up this article, 40 hours of rubbish video was added to the site…

Interestingly, this news comes only a few months after it was discovered that in the United States, more searches are made on YouTube than on the whole of Yahoo.

Don’t get me wrong – there is a lot of funny and good video on YouTube, but I think the majority of it is complete garbage and should be removed as quickly as it can be uploaded!
