As people recently grumbled about gmail glitches on LinkedIn, they had no idea what was likely to hit them next. According to a Nemertes Research report, in 2010 they will suffer disruptions such as Internet slowness and temporary freezing that could cause disruptions in many online businesses. Nemertes analyst Ted Ritter cautions that the net will become such an unreliable entity that it will be useless "for business purposes, such as delivering medical records between hospitals in real time."
Internet Capacity Will Stifle Innovation
Ritter says people expect computers to slow down when the kids get back from school and start playing games, but "by 2012 that traffic jam could last all day long." Information on "The Internet Singularity Delayed: Why Limits in Internet Capacity will Stifle Innovation on the Web" is on the company's website (nemertes.com).
Lightning-Fast Parallel Network and "Caches"
Sunday Times reporter John Harlow reports that "Engineers are already preparing for the worst" and that there are plans for a lightning-fast parallel network and "caches" in which private computer stations would store popular entertainment on local supercomputers rather than send it through the "global backbone." Most likely, the use of the parallel network will come with costs and, perhaps, so will the entertainment "caches." Finally, there's a way to make money out of the (up until now) free Internet.
