MarsCol rated 3 months ago- More news from the Singularity front. "The Grid" the interweb's (hehe) replacement that CERN (home of the first internet) has built. 10,000 times faster than the web we use today. A full length movie completely downloaded in a few seconds.

- From the page: "THE internet could soon be made obsolete. The scientists who pioneered it have now built a lightning-fast replacement capable of downloading entire feature films within seconds. At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband connection, â€oethe grid” will be able to send the entire Rolling Stones back catalogue from Britain to Japan in less than two seconds."

- The Large Hadron Collider generates so much information that it necessitates an incredibly high speed (~10,000 times faster than current broadband) connection to transmit the information. So far about 8,000 servers are connected to this new hi-speed network. It has the tremendous possibility of changing the way we communicate (holographic telecommunications).

- This is great!
And in time for the LHC project? Even better!
Of course, the gaming aspect is an excellent perk as well ^_^ - This is great!

- Oh.. my.. God... I think I just creamed myself. At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband connection, "the grid" will be able to send the entire Rolling Stones back catalogue from Britain to Japan in less than two seconds. The latest spin-off from Cern, the particle physics centre that created the web, the grid could also provide the kind of power needed to transmit holographic images; allow instant online gaming with hundreds of thousands of players; and offer high-definition video telephony for the price of a local call.

- It's been talked about for a few years now and I'm still waiting for it to hit here. I'll bet we Brits get charged a shit load for the upgrade.
