IPcalypse

 Internet is Running Out of Space



This morning I came across an article from Mashable stating that the Internet is running out of space. It's funny because you don't necessarily ever think about something like this happening. The web is infinite how could it have a maximum capacity? There are bounds to everything but luckily someone was intelligent enough to realize how quickly we were approaching this number and creating a new IPv6.

My question is doesn't this seem to be inevitable? Will this happen at one point in the future or will all those computer geniuses out there continue to fix the problem? Can the world even having this much?
