<P _extended="true"><STRONG _extended="true">The Internet could soon be made 
obsolete. The scientists who pioneered it have now built a lightning-fast 
replacement capable of downloading entire feature films within 
seconds.</STRONG></p> <P _extended="true">At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband 
connection, “the grid” will be able to send the entire Rolling Stones back 
catalogue from Britain to Japan in less than two seconds.</p> <P _extended="true">The latest spin-off from Cern, the particle physics centre 
that created the web, the grid could also provide the kind of power needed to 
transmit holographic images; allow instant online gaming with hundreds of 
thousands of players; and offer high-definition video telephony for the price of 
a local call.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C1CA85D4-7A85-4B29-B490-980518D3B101/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
