• 1 trillion web pages :

  "We knew the web was big... We've known it for a long time: the web is big. The first Google index in 1998 already had 26 million pages, and by 2000 the Google index reached the one billion mark. Over the last eight years, we've seen a lot of big numbers about how much content is really out there. Recently, even our search engineers stopped in awe about just how big the web is these days -- when our systems that process links on the web to find new content hit a milestone: 1 trillion (as in 1,000,000,000,000) unique URLs on the web at once!"

  "PubMatic published its monthly AdPrice Index for July 2008 and it showed ad rates declining in most markets, especially Social Network sites. PubMatic draws its data from 4,000 Web sites that take ad network advertising, 85% of which are based in the U.S.
  Surprisingly, small web sites can demand significantly higher CPM rates than larger web sites. This may be due to better targeting smaller niche markets that advertisers consider more valuable."

• Enterprises become the battleground for social networking :
