Map the Internet... In One Day?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the graph-paper dept.

rjbrown99 writes "There have been numerous stories over the past few years on Bill Cheswick's Internet Mapping Project. The Lumeta folks even created a company out of it. Well, now there is a competitor. A single guy with a single computer is working to accomplish the same feat - within ONE DAY and using open-source tools to do it. The new project is called Opte and can be found at www.opte.org." He's made some progress and is looking for volunteers.

    You can't make money with computers anymore because some jackass is always trying to give away the same thing you're doing.

    I had maps of pre-war Iraq and then compared them to today, one could see how badly Iraq was destroyed.

    They have the Internet in Iraq? I thought the only network they had was Al-Qaida.

    Attack Iraq? YES!

    geez, why is this news even up here at smashblot?

    if that dude claims he'd need only one day, so why isnt he long done by now.

    jeez, even i couldnt think of a more stupid aproach and a more silly marketing blah blah than him :)))

    leave that server of his alone, cuz there is nothing new to his stuff any more. since he is long done by now, move along people, and /. the next stories url instead :))))
