Sea Cable - internet secret

I guess these handle large part of our internet connection. Seems like 70% and some large percentage of internet connection was down in Egypt, India, and some other countries just because some ship damaged the cable.

well i dont' know how they are going to fix it but hope they will come back up soon.

you can look at the maps here


SeaCable



another thing I was astonished by this news was that its bandwidth...

more than 7 trillion bps

i can't really tell how fast that is.. but that's what you need to make this "Internet" thing happen.
hats off to engineers who figured this out...
