Posted by Zonk on from the take-a-left-at-amazon-and-then-a-right-past-fark dept.

Shire writes "Science magazine is running a story on the DIMES project, which has ventured to map the structure and evolution of the Internet (PDF) using open source distributed clients in the style of SETI@Home and such. DIMES has already collected more than 40 Millions measurements which resulted in some nice pictures and several scientific presentations. Those who use traceroute may find it a useful (and colorful) alternative."

    Completely OT and I'm more than certain someone will flex their mighty moderating power to say so (and why bother with the good comments that need modding up when you can mod one down that makes no difference to anything) but..

    According to my RSS feed, Zonk has put 16 stories up from 23:27 last night until 20:19 tonight, with the biggest gap being 3.5 hours! Does this guy never sleep? There's dedication and there's dedication....
