Is it pronounced Gif or Jif? The internet will debate on this forever.
With the rise of HTML5 and video-streaming content, it’s nothing short of a miracle that Gifs are still around. Not only do Gifs exist but they thrive more than ever in our technology-information age.

Facebook has already been supporting GIFs in their standalone messenger app for a couple years. Since this time, GIF sends have tripled in the past year with 13 billion GIFs sent, or about 25,000 GIFs each and every minute. Talk about mind boggling!
