"Could everyone please stop launching blogs and upgrading smartphones and
buying airconditioners that are operated across the web? The internet is
nearly full."

"In approximately 500 days, planet Earth is expected to run out of the
unique numbers that identify the world's networked devices. The numbers are
known as internet protocol addresses but if that sounds like geek, don't
fret. They are probably more familiar than you realise."


All up, it's enough to make you cringe (starting with the lack of a capital
I in the subject, it goes downhill from there), but there are some good
quotes from Geoff Huston...

  Scott.
