This seems very interesting. Able to download feature films within seconds? Is it possible this will replace the Internet?

Pah! Back in my day, we had dial-up and we liked it!

If the Internet is a series of tubes, then what is the Grid? A series of Internets??

Replace the internet? I don't think so.

Though I'm sure this may be the new way internet will work. Downloading a whole album at lightning speed... wows.

What scares me about this is that this is what they're going to switch on after they turn on the LHC.

Actually, the LHC is the only thing that scares me about this article. This "grid" sounds kickawesome.
