Humor According to research that's supposed to be published later this year, growing demand for Internet use will soon outstrip the stamina of the infrastructure supporting it, and the Internet will cease to be reliable by 2012. Complete anarchy will ensue, and the world will essentially end along with the Internet we created for it. Perhaps this is what the Mayan prophecies meant?

But also Nostradamus predicted the end of the world by december 2012.

Predictions aside, youtube is the television of today. Maybe ISPs should start caching most used content (videos and large files). That would solve part of the problem. The other part would be that they actually improve their already obsolete technology. How many people here have gigabit connection with their ISP?
