Facebook: 250 billion photos uploaded since launch

Facebook has announced some shocking numbers about its photo volume since launch.
The social networking giant says over 250 billion photos have been uploaded since the site launched in 2004, and everyday, the company's 1.15 billion user uploads an average of 350 million photos.

Additionally, the company says 4.75 billion total pieces of content (comments, status updates, photos and more) are posted daily. 4.5 billion "Likes" and 10 billion messages are sent through Facebook Messenger everyday, as well.

The numbers decimate other photo sharing sites, as Flickr only sees 3.5 million photos per day and Instagram (owned by FB) sees 55 million per day.
