Even though Facebook has some 90 billion pictures (and I'm not saying that's incredibly impressive), technology is fleeting and the site will not always be there. It will no doubt disappear one day, and even the internet does not keep a record of everything.
A few years ago, I found a song called Bad Head, Bad Hat, by Hew. It was the artist's only available song on the website and less than ten years later, even with the power of the internet, that song is nowhere to be found. It's the same thing with photos. Unless, say, Facebook, transfers its entire library of pictures to, say twitter, or Google+, or whatever the next big social networking site may be, many of those 90 billion photos will be gone. Moreover, even if this happens, it cannot go on indefinitely, as one day the internet should end in one way or another. There's simply no way to keep all these memories going.
This is, of course, speaking in the (extremely) long term. As far as your own pictures go, in your own life, pictures to bring back memories, for better or for worse, and make you happy you took them.
The things that we don't want forgotten.

His note: Pringles seemed like a good subject matter even if it was empty.

Her note: I'm guessing gold is now in style.

Just walking around, you tend to see things. Longboards are getting relatively popular, as these three will more than likely tell you. They were leaving a pizza place to go somewhere. I just this shot because the colours are a bit more vibrant at night, and there's usually a bit more to see.
Onto tomorrow.
