Download the World Wide Web

These days, if you can't access the Web, you can't do your business or probably nothing else . 

The days where you couldn't surf the web because you had no Internet connection available are no more ! 

Imagine if you can download the Web in your computer, you will be able to access it from anywhere, anytime !

Making your imagination true , a company called MyWebDownload.com launched this project.

Can't believe this ?  or stuck with lots of doubts ?..Then read this..

Q: Isn’t the Web too big to for anyone to be able to download it?
If we consider the whole World Wide Web, yes it would be impossible to download it. The latest numbers from Google estimate that there are around 40 billion pages on the Web. If we then estimate that each page has 10KB on average, that is already 400,000,000,000 KB, or 400 Terabytes!

It turns out, however, that 90% of those websites are pornographic or gambling related. Once we removed those, therefore, the size of The Web was reduced to 10% of its initial value, or 40,000,000,000 KB (40 Terabytes).

After that we removed the illegal MP3 and movie downloads, and the YouTube videos. This further reduced the size of The Web to 3,444,000,000 (or 3,444 Terabytes), and that is the size of our file collection.

I guess it makes sense.

The files are very big, each with over 100 Gigabytes. The site recommend users to use a download manager software to make sure that they will be able to pause and restart downloads if necessary.

Overall it is a nice idea, and certainly a website to keep an eye on.
