Nup. That doesn't take up much space. Pics don't take up anything and videos are normally bad quality. Trust me. I hate it.

Umm... just kidding.

Yeah, I heard something like 2 exabytes of traffic go through the net each day or year or something.

you should find this interesting: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... p_1024.jpg

and as large as the internet is, i've heard less than 3% of it is actually porn, and like most of you know, most traffic is bittorrent (iirc).

According to this,, it accounts for 12%. On top of that 260 new sites are made a day...hehehe, its quite scary and bad really.

A quick search found these, I wasn't going out of my way, honestly :P

Every second - 372 Internet users are typing adult search terms into search engines
I found that extremely disturbing. I say, the Internet is the same size as the universe. >_>

I don't. I think every twelve year old has type "boobs" in google image search once or twice in their life.

Yup, and the combined weight of the electrons that pass through the internet every day is around 2 ounces. Incredible, if you ask me...
