Now you can watch even more videos featuring cats running into walls, children doing adorable things and angsty teens whining about their lives, as YouTube is reporting that it now sees 35 hours of video uploaded every minute.
Back in March we noted that the video-sharing site was receiving 24 hours of video every minute — i.e. an entire day’s worth of entertainment in just 60 seconds. Now, according to the YouTube blog, that number has increased by more than 10 hours.

The jump makes sense — back in July, YouTube bumped its upload limit up to 15 minutes for non-partners (it was previously 10 minutes). Also, according to YouTube, more companies are integrating its APIs to support uploads from outside of the site itself, and YouTube’s upload file size has gone up as well.
The increase in content also means that there’s now more for users to sift through, so hopefully new features like YouTube Discovery will make navigating that content easier for video fans as the site continues to grow.
