Americans Consume 34 Gigabytes Daily Per Person
We feast our eyes and ears on TV, computers, video game consoles, handheld consoles, smart phones, radio, movies, and music - not to mention print media. Now a new report finds that the info diet adds up to about 34 gigabytes per day for each person.
Total numbers get even scarier. All those beloved info-delivery gadgets in U.S. homes helped Americans collectively consume 3.6 zettabytes of data in 2008. Just one zettabyte would fill 1,000 datacenters, or, as the report suggests, 3.6 zettabytes of text in books stacked tightly across the continental U.S. and Alaska would create a massive pile 7 feet high.
