Describing The Web With Physics
Fungii writes: "There is a fascinating article over on physicsweb.com about 'The physics of the Web.' It gets a little technical, but it is a really interesting subject, and is well worth a read." And if you missed it a few months ago, the IBM study describing "the bow tie theory" (and a surprisingly disconnected Web) makes a good companion piece. One odd note is the reseachers' claim that the Web contains "nearly a billion documents," when one search engine alone claims to index more than a third beyond that, but I guess new and duplicate documents will always make such figures suspect.
(What will happen as the net becomes more and more like a brain? Can it have a soul? )
"Please don't take this the wrong way, but that's honestly the sort of question I'd expect from someone who doesn't understand computers."
Nope. I think its from a person who doesn't understand almost anything. Taco, please use your own ID when you post intelligent (by your standards) comments.
Yeah, I know this is flamebait. I don't give a @#@^

They didn't even have the decency to throw a half dozen monkeys in a room with typewriters for a few hours. They had to go and use niggers instead. That's got to be why this article is so fucking worthless. Oh well, I've come to expect nothing but a waste of time form niggers and not only are the article "authors" niggardly, but so are the asswipes that decided that this was "News for nerds." Better get out the dictionary you motherfuckers and learn what "news" means.
yes, this proves my theory true:
people have to much fucking free time
No.
This lamer is impersonating Mr. Drumond.
