ruminations of a kennedy - The Internet. Go ahead and have fun! You're anonymous!*

this is something i found and thought i'd give it a shot with little to no expectations other than to provide another outlet on the web that allows me to spill my thoughts, reflections, demented humor, and personal wisdom. (or is it ignorance?)

The Internet. Go ahead and have fun! You’re anonymous!*

above is one artist’s (utopia) portrayal of the vast information superhighway known as the internet. if they took the training wheels off their internet modem/router, they would likely find the internet is much more than cute little kittens in compromising positions with ironic captions printed next to them. wait, now that i think about it, kittens do make up 50% of the world wide web. then you have 40% attributed to porn, 5% for actual educational and research subjects, 4% for social networking and blogging, and then the last 1% is comprised of a combination of e-mail, streaming media and…well, probably some more porn.

here is a visualization of the various routes through a portion of the internet. if you look really close, you can spot a youtube video of a panda bear sneezing.

thanks al gore!

but no, seriously, thanks tim berners-lee!

*okay, technically you are not anonymous. in fact, you’re actually far from it. anything you enter or type over the web can be tracked back through your IP address and is never deleted, and is archived by our privacy invading government. this includes your e-mails, instant messages, chat room and message board discussions, searches, downloads, and basically everything else.
