在奇摩美國版上看到科學家的呼籲
他們說在2010年之前網路頻寬可能就面臨滿載的後果
所以在這短危機時刻不可能再有類似yahoo, google. amezone, youtube這類大公司的出現了
因為目前的資源不足以提供那麼大的頻寬
這個呼籲令我感到訝異
因為外國人總是喜歡保守估計
明明三年他們會說十年
有二十年的緩衝他們可能會說到下個世紀都沒問題
可是這個警告很短只有三年
也許就暗示了若沒有新的科技出來解決頻寬的滿載問題
將來可能沒有多餘的空間裝我們的知識或娛樂了
所以
結論是
檔案備份要做好
要是將來頻寬因為政治或經濟因素被收回
網誌可能會莫名消失喔
沒錯
我在恐嚇大家嘿嘿嘿

Booming demand for Internet services combined with insufficient infrastructure investment could leave the Web vulnerable to brown outs within three years, a study released Tuesday predicted.

Nemertes Research said Internet providers need to invest from $42 billion to $55 billion -- or 60% to 70% more than current plans call for -- to stave off interruptions to the digital economy that could happen if the 'Net bogs down. "The next Google, YouTube, or Amazon might not arise" if the situation isn't fixed, Nemertes said.
The problem, the group said, is that bandwidth usage is outpacing infrastructure build outs. While core fiber and switching/routing technology "will scale nicely," Internet access resources could soon be overwhelmed in three to five years, Nemertes said.
