YouTube has always had amazing upload stats. For example, there are 23 or 32 or 45 minutes of video uploaded every minute.

But they just crossed a fun threshold, and created a fun site to announce this fun threshold: Every minute, one hour of video is uploaded to YouTube.

This lets us do fun 1:1 comparisons of minutes to hours and if you visit One Hour Per Second you get an animated HTML5 jamboree of the comparisons they make.

Images: Selected stills from YouTube’s One Hour Per Second Web site. Select any to embiggen.

H/T: Flowing Data.
