Does Google really index 0.04% of the Internet? Really?
"Google estimates that the Internet today contains about 5 million terabytes of data (1TB = 1,000GB), and claims it has only indexed a paltry 0.04% of it all! You could fit the whole Internet on just 200 million Blu-Ray disks." I saw this on makeuseof.com but cant verify it.
- Piskvorrr 14y agoWell, searching videos, for one, seems like a significant challenge (not video titles, not video comments: video content). Incidentally, video also takes a lot of space...
- byzzy 14y agoThats true. Also, link spam might have something to do with this low number of 0.04% (if it is indeed true)
- zimpenfish 14y agoAlso the "deep internet" is frequently postulated to be "huge" by "people". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_web http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_web
