Mind blowing if you think about it. I really want to focus on the positives of WWW in this thread. I, like million others, am making a living out of WWW and that itself is so amazing. Thank you Tim Berners-Lee and everyone else who made this happen. A remarkable Invention for the human kind.
- PaulDavisThe1st 5y agoI'd be curious to know how many combined page loads there are for PornHub (and cousins) per minute. It's just as much a part of what the web is today as any of the services listed above.
- input_sh 5y agoPornhub is very open about its metrics: https://www.pornhub.com/insights/2019-year-in-review https://www.pornhub.com/insights/2019-year-in-review
- lucasverra 5y agoI stopped being impressed by "one minute in the Internets" a couple of years ago. I mean, internet is at hands distance of many people now. As beer and toilet paper. Let's move to more significant metrics like people making a living out of it, value transferred or something else :)
- hutzlibu 5y agoNo pedantic comment complaining, that the internet is older and not the same as the WWW? Well, then I am doing it ... So someone using youtube might be using the www, but is not when using the android app for example. Etc. blabla. And yes, the WWW is awesome, even though the spec is a wild chaos.
- akudha 5y agoThese are all eye popping numbers. Somehow the YouTube number is scarier than others. With that much content, how is anyone supposed to find what they are interested in? No wonder YouTube’s algorithm is so bad. Even google can’t do a good job of search and recommendation at YouTube
