SMALL WORLD, BIG WEB
It’s not 300 million, but the World Wide Web just hit its own milestone – 100 million Web sites.
As CNN reports today, Netcraft, an Internet monitoring company, says the milestone was reached in October.
The report says that bloggers are one reason for a high increase in sites over the past two to three years.
The US is the world leader with more than 54 million sites. Germany is a distant second with 15 million, followed by the United Kingdom with 6 million.
What’s also interesting in the article is that the very first Web site (launched in 1989) was created to share data on particle smashing from the European Organization for Nuclear Research in Switzerland for people who weren’t there.
How quickly will Web site number 200 million pop up?
Stay tuned.
