I found a reference to this question in a talk by Stephen Chu (http://www.ustream.tv/recor... - starting 26.30min
Stephen Chu: "[...] the internet, where there are 24 million hits, in case you are wondering, in point one five seconds [...]"
I assumed Prof. Chu either meant 1.5 seconds or 0.15 seconds.
So I did some math and this came out:
Internet live stats for 24million/0.15 seconds
160 000 000 clicks per second4 000 000 clicks per blink of an eye3 200 000 clicks per Hummingbird Wingbeat2666666.7 clicks per Flash Shutter Sync0.16 clicks per nanosecond0.000 000 000 16 clicks per attosecond0.000 000 000 000 000 16 clicks per yoktosecond

I was in awe by these numbers and began to think about it.If the estimation is correct and there are around two billion internet users for 2010, these live stats seem to be pretty intense.
If the internet consists of 160 million clicks per second (avg), this would mean that on avg. every internet user is making a click every 12.5 seconds
If the internet consists of 16 million clicks per second you still get 125 seconds for every internet user.
I am guessing these numbers come up because of automated spam etc. or we are really a bunch of intensive internet users :)
Dear Prof. Hanson,
one more question:
What is real time internet?

What is your opinion on this?
peace and conflict studies:
claim:
Some conflicts cannot be solved in a specific moment in time, but all conflicts can be solved over time.
do you agree?
