  Speaker 1: One of our favorite features is music's lost history. You
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: know the music, but do you know the artist and
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the story behind the music? See if you can name
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the title or the artist before we give it to you. Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net.

  Speaker 1: It's music's lost history. Enjoy your exploration. Hey, it's me,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: that question guy. You know, the dude that's always asking
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: questions because it's so much fun to start researching for answers.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: For instance, how many photos does the average person have
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: in their memory on that smartphone? Plus, identifying the age
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: group who currently has the most photos on that smartphone.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Which age group do you think it is? My name
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: is Arrow. I'm a daily writer, a silent wolf. I
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen, study,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: then activate. I call it the daily mess, a chronological
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: walk through an everyday world. It is my daily writing.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: When a subject arrives inside of me, dude, it's time
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: to dig in. It's still keeping that daily journal, but
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: by doing the research, the picture becomes clearer. This is
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: the Daily Mess. And speaking of pictures, on average, how
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: many photographs does the normal everyday person have stored on
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: their beautiful smartphone? First, my father wouldn't know what to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: do with this amazing modern day luxury. He had one
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: photo of me. I think it was my third grade
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: class picture. I can't help but wonder if Steve Jobs
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: at Apple knew what he was doing when it came
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: to turning this thing into the world's largest photo album.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: So how many do we have eating up all of
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: our memory? Well, light users like my mom would check
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: in with maybe 500 to 1,000 smartphone pictures. Typical users
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: are just a little bit ahead with about 2,000 to 5,000
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: selfies and other collectibles. Oh, and then there's the rest
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: of us. If you started counting today, you might get
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: to 50,000 by the end of the week. It's not 50,000 selfies. Oh, no, no, no.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: It's duplicates, memes, receipts, and all other glorious download photos.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: So let's break this down then. Which age group is
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: saving the most pictures? I was shocked to see that
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: 18 to 29 year olds having the fewest amount of
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: photos on their phone, about 6,000. Then 45 to 59
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: year olds, followed by 30 to 44 year olds. And
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: at number one, collecting the most photos on their phone
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: right now, 60 years old and older. 10,000 and more
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: photographs on the smartphone. Oh my God. Hey, coming up next,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: how can we purge these photos off the smartphone and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: still have a lot of memories saved? Hey, thanks for
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: coming back to The Daily Mess. How often should we
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: purge our old smartphone photographs or should we keep them
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: pretty much forever? Oh, the pros are saying you got
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: to purge ahead. It's a lot. But keep the real
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: memory makers. When we're talking about smartphone photograph purging, what
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: are we really talking about here? Monthly dumps, you know,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the junk and your duplicates. Oh, and the accidental shots
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: that are usually pretty much blurred out. Once a year,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: make it a really deep clean. So much so that
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: you can now organize the smartphone photographs. But wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: What qualifies as a meaningful memory-making photo? Family is always important.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: So are those special events. people you work with and
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: moments you would love to visit one more time. The
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: key thing to remember is don't confuse the two thoughts.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Number one, I don't need this photo today and I'll
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: never want this again. They are not one in the same.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I don't need this photo today pretty much says, I'm
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: in a mood right now. Don't remove it. Don't do
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: it because you're in a mood right now. That's why
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: you got to run with, I'll never want this again. Yeah, right.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: You don't want this now, basically, is what you're trying
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: to say. I mean, those weekend adventures, you just don't
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: want it now. So if you dump it, it's pretty
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: much gone forever. But the good news is you've got
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: space to race with inside that smartphone. Collect as many
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: as you want and do some purging later on. I'm Errol,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: and that's The Daily Mess.
