Simple question.


For example with you put in some sort of data like your name or screen name via Internet how long does the data float around in cyberspace.?

Till the internet crashes!

I read a piece once on search engines and doing a search on google stays in thier memory permanantly. Some other search engines dump after a given amount of time. I would bet once your on the internet, aside from search engines, you may be eternal.  

From your question, you make it sound as if the internet is just a big puddle of data, floating around until it's called upon. Obviously, that's not the case. As vast as the net is, it's still just a point to point process. So i suppose it would all depend on what servers (points) your info is on.

What I want to know is this. Have you ever begun typing something, before you realized that the window you THOUGHT you were typing into wasn't active? So that, everything you had typed just wasn't there. Where do all those keystrokes go?

I sometimes find a few of my old webpages that shouldn't be there as they were deleted from the server long ago. I have no idea where they are but they still show up on search engines. Very clever this Internet.

Perhaps too clever. This thing must be stopped!

...mmm....surprising what pops up on the Internet when you least expect it........Browsing some months ago I was surprised to see this little item.... (When in doubt..DIY) ...from almost 30 years ago..........Days of the Sinclair Spectrum....some of you will remember that

The moral is ....Don't be surprised if something you say or do on this or any other forum jumps out and bites you years from now..

That's right. When you are old, wrinkled and using your zimmerframe, that video of you engaging in "nocturnal activities" is still being watched by teenage boys with time in their hands. What do you think Brittney, Paris, Pammy, Tonya, John and Abi just to name a few.

There are many times now, when I wish I had never dabbled in the "Internet".

Its bad enough when all the various Agencies in the Country know all about you. Now you can add to that, everything you ever posted on the Internet, both good and bad, for everyone in the World to see, and hear!... ...!

Every time you press that "Post" button, you are revealing a bit more about yourself to the general public....

...and the various Agencies around the World!... ... ... ...!

A very scary thought... ...!

F.... ..!

...pressing the "Post" button?... :-/...!

Its all part of the master plan.. to learn everything about us. Then as they get smarter they eventually will control us!

Perhaps I've said too much

google keeps a very large cache of all the sites, thats why when you google something that has been deleted you can select cached at the bottom of all the info, and it will go into the page even though it was deleted.

google controls the internet  :o

 Search the "WebWaybackMachine".
