OVER 1 TRILLION AND STILL GOING.

I found on Google's blog the numbers I was looking for. How many unique web pages it has indexed. There are over one trillion with a t. You read that right!! Wow!!! Finding to find anything useful has been Google's [and some others less successfully] mission from the start. They get good marks but they still have a long journey ahead of them to truly make the web the tool I think it can be.

The goal still is to be able to find just what you are looking for when you want it and to have the web help you by crawling and delivering sites automatically even without you going and searching for them at all. Think of it as a your own personal online research assistant. Don't laugh because it may be just around the corner. Story is located here.

INTERNET CAUSES DEPRESSION?!

This is what was posted at Slashdot. The story is so funny that I just have to post my reaction. The media is always trying to blame society's problems on the internet. Give it a rest would you please! Just because people are not glued to the idiot box AKA Television like they used to does not mean you have to go on the attack against the net.

I'll let a Slashdot poster say it for you and I in such simple terms even a journalist [LOL] could understand it: "How about: Awareness of the world makes people more depressed."

Sick and depressing world = sick and depressed people. DUH!!!
