How Much Content Do You Consume?
December 9th, 2009
According to the ‘Bits’ blog on the New York Times digital site, referencing a report from the University of California, San Diego – Americans have a ‘diet’ of 34GB a day… WOW! That’s a LOT of content. The biggest gainer, by medium is the gaming platform:
“Gaming saw the biggest leap in the number of bytes we consume and the amount of time devoted to this platform.”
Not surprising, print consumption continues to decline, with a caveat:
“Print media has declined consistently, but if you add up the amount of time people spend surfing the Web, they are actually reading more than ever.”
