Performance Set
New World Record for Internet
Performance Set
09/05/2004 06:24 AMCaltech and CERN top new performance threshold by sending 859GB at
more than 6.6 Gbps across nearly 16,000 km
Ann Arbor, Mich. – September 1, 2004 – An international team has
broken their own record and set a new Internet2(R) Land Speed Record
by transferring 859 gigabytes of data in less than 17 minutes across
nearly 16,000 kilometers of networks at a rate of 6.63 gigabits per
second, about 10,000 times faster than a typical home broadband
connection. The record was set by a team consisting of members from
the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and CERN using the
same IPv4 protocols deployed throughout the global Internet
The Internet2 Land Speed Record (I2-LSR) is an open and ongoing
competition for the highest-bandwidth, end-to-end networks, with
judging based on the speed of transfer multiplied by the distance
traveled. Because of delays due to the speed of light and other
factors, data transfer over the Internet becomes more challenging as
speed, or distance, or both increase. With a mark of more than 104.5
petabit-meters per second, this record is the first time the 100
"petabump" performance threshold has been broken.

world-record time Saturday night, giving Michael Phelps his record
eighth medal of the Athens Olympics without him getting into the pool.
Aaron Peirsol, Brendan Hansen, Ian Crocker and Jason Lezak won in 3

Americans at last year's world championships in Barcelona, Spain.

World Record for Drunk
12/20/2003 05:03 PM"The unidentified middle-aged man was unconscious but stable after a
blood test showed 7.22 parts per million of alcohol, police
spokeswoman Ieva Zvidre said. An average person would vomit at around
1.2, lose consciousness at 3.0 and stop breathing at a level of about
4.0 parts per million, Zvidre said, adding: 'This is one for the
Guinness Book of Records.'"
Now, just because they used that term, you know someone's going to try

World Record Texting
World Record Texting
05/06/2004 12:55 PM
It's amazing the sort of stuff they keep track of for world records
these days. However, for the "thumb generation" there's a new
standard to aspire to. Already considered the world's fastest text
message writer, James Trusler, has
set a new world
record for speed texting on his mobile phone by tapping out "The
razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are
the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they
seldom attack a human." in 67 seconds. The article doesn't get into
the (oh so important) details like what type of phone he used and
whether it had helpful software like T9 to make texting faster. Of
course, how do you judge such records when the technology is always
changing? Is it fair to compare someone texting on a regular keypad
against someone using a full Treo keyboard? What about the new
DigitWireless phones with
letter keys spaced between the number keys? There are going to be a
lot of sub-categories for this record set.

The CRS-1, which Cisco unveiled in May, is capable of downloading

82 years.

A Dating Site That Doesn't Need Its Own
Site
05/04/2004 06:25 PMPeople are starting to realize that Google is more of a platform than
just a search engine. With all the focus on social networks these
days, Google still doesn't search
in those networks. So, one
company is trying to use the power of Google and public websites to
build
their own open social networking dating site. Basically, they get
you to fill out a typical dating profile, which generates some
metadata that you include on your own website. Then, they've
apparently built out some sort of front-end that uses Google to search
sites that include that metadata. What's unclear is how they make
sure that Google will index the right sites that include the data.
The business model for the company is to show Google's contextual ads
along with the results. It's an interesting idea, but I wonder how
comfortable some people are with putting that sort of info on the
"publicly" available web. While it's really not all that different
than on a dating site, a dating site at least is somewhat hidden
behind a protective barrier, and lets the user hide some of their
info.
