According to CNN, in 2015, there might have been 6.5 billion cat pictures uploaded to the Internet. They didn't specify if this was unique cat photos, and they actually projected this number from earlier data in 2010. If we did the same extrapolation there may be 24 billion cat photos on the Internet right now. So that begs the question, do we ever need to upload another cat photo? Maybe the best thing would be to curate the cat photos that are already online, surely we have covered all our cat bases by now?
There can't be enough cat photos! I don't have a cat but I like these animals.
I beg to differ. Assuming you could spend 10 hours of your day looking at cat photos, and spent one seconds per photo (say on a auto slide show) we are taking about 36,000 photos a day or for the fist billion at about 7.6 years to watch the first billion and for 10 billion 76 years to watch. And by that time even more cat photos will have been produced.
If it's no matter what cat I see, you are right.
If people share here their cat photos they share more than just a cat photo - they share the photo of a creature that lives with them every day, something that is closely related to their own person.
I am at dpreview since many years - most often at the Pentax forum. I spend a lot of time here and thus, I spend a lot of time with people - and with some of them since a very long time. We know almost nothing from each other. However, if we share something private there is a little link. For this reason a cat photo from a person I spend a lot of time with is not just a cat photo - it is more.
