]]> Comment on Word powers of ten by notedscholar http://maxwelldemon.com/2012/02/02/word-powers-of-ten/#comment-42681 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 15:49:18 +0000 http://maxwelldemon.com/?p=953#comment-42681 Excellent post! It is amazing that our cognitive equipment can find ways to compute such large problems!

I would point out that the number of words on the Internet may someday meet a penultimate amount! I suspect this would be the maximum amount of information the Universe can contain.

Best,

I have never thought about the quantity of words such huge context before. In fact, I don´t think I´ve either thought about this in relations with the internet. As obvious as it should be in a way. My main reading happens there nowadays. Thank you for bringing me out of the box. Again! :-) “Cent mille milliards de poèmes“ sounds fascinating. Do you have it?

You might like this one, which has both elliptic and hyperbolic patterns in the same image (link is to a smaller file that is portion of the image, but the full version is available at my post above).

Thank you for your insights into these patterns.
