Here are some interesting facts and figures from the Internet and tech world.
In 2002 Nintendo invested more than $ 140-Million in research and development. The US Federal Government spent less than half of that on research and innovation in education.
One out of eight couples which married in the US last year met online.
If MySpace were a country it would be the 11th largest in the world. As of September 2006 it had more than 106-million registered users.
The average MySpace page is visited 30 times a day.
The number of text messages sent and received per day exceeds the total population of the planet.
It is estimated that 40 Exabyte (40 x 10^19) of unique new information will be generated worldwide this year.
e-Paper will eventually be cheaper than real paper
47 million laptops were shipped last year
Predictions are that by 2013 a supercomputer will be built that exceeds the computational power of the human brain.
Predictions are that by 2049 a $ 1000-00 computer will exceed the computational capabilities of the entire human race.
