A Day in the Internet is Absolutely Staggering

[Dioxide20]

Imagine how many of those massive amounts of files, texts, emails, etc. are simply "lol" or "wtf" or "rofl" ...

lol.


...

That is amazing, I would like to see a comparison of internet between now and 10 years ago, just to see how much bigger it has gotten.

Funk-master, your post reminds me of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (on describing space). That is for why this topic is awesome.

On-Topic: Wow. Just...wow. More disks than humans. If they were anything but small plastic oblang slats, I'd make a comment about overwhelming the human race.

 

[Jared]

THat really does make you think...thats alot of numbers!

 

[Octorok]

The Internet is big. How big, do you ask? Really, really big.

You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind boggling big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the street to the chemist's but that's peanuts compared to the Internet, listen...

I'm surprised at you Funk for not slipping that one in.

Damn ninjas...

I was in IRC when this was posted and I thought those exact words.

Damn. Seeing as we have a near infinite pool of knowledge at our disposal, it's weird how there are still so many darn ignorant people out there.

 

[Alpha Centauri]

DAM! Thats ALOT of shit.

Imagine how many of those massive amounts of files, texts, emails, etc. are simply "lol" or "wtf" or "rofl" ...

to be honest, it makes me kind of sick to think of it...

Probably half or something.

And the amount of important texts, emails, tweets, ect. that are actually useful is probably around the 500 range.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

And the content is....

12% spam Emails,
62% porn,
10% Tweets along the lines of "in the bathroom",
8% pictures of cats with funny captions,
6% pictures of grandchildren in stupid clothing,
1.9% text messages consisting of "lol", "rofl" and other Internet slang,
0.1% anything of value (including this site)

 

[SantoUno]

Billions and BILLIONS of starsgigabytes!

 

[SnipErlite]

When does it form its own army, navy and air force?

It is already a world superpower

EDIT: Also on one of those links, damn, 8 billion songs purchased and 160 billion pirated. Woah.

 

[DemonicVixen]

I remember when the internet was none existant in this house and in my schools. Now i can't live without it.

 

[zoozilla]

Those stats are pretty insane.

But not as insane as the stats on my WoW mage!

 

[Always_Remain]

That website just reminds me why I love humanity so much.

And reminds me how pathetic I am.
*fetal position*

 

[Flying-Emu]

I miss the days when the Internet was where the cool kids came to hang out.

 

[internetzealot1]

The Internet. Fuck yeah!
