Just when you thought you had the latest and greatest internet connection, the upgrade to comes out. Can you imagine what type of technology is next on the menu of high tech? Well, you don’t need to imagine anymore. This summer you will be able to see the power of The Grid when Cern, the Genva based particle physics center, switches on the Large Hadron Collider. According to the TimesOnline The Grid may actually make the internet obsolete.
What can The Grid do that the internet cannot?
The Grid will be about 10,000 times faster than broadband. That kind of speed will allow techology, like holographic video conferencing, to begin - which will make gaming a whole new world. The Grid has already been used to design a drug against malaria. Domestic use, however; will probably not be available right away.
Sorry to disappoint...
