I am working honest
scanning websites for research on communications I stumbled across this interesting bit of useless information:
•Overload with data and information -at a recent conference, George Cox, the Director General of the IOD, stated that
-In a single day last year, there was as much world trade as in the whole of 1949
-In a single day last year, there was as much scientific research carried out in the world as in the whole of 1960
-In a single day last year, there were as many phone calls as in the whole of 1983
-In a single day last year, we sent and read as many e-mails as in the whole of 1990
("last year" would be 2002)
