Faster Internet

There is nothing worse than waiting an extra ten seconds for your page to load. The things that can run through your head in those seconds. Some researchers played around with lasers and we might have ourselves a much faster internet. Aside from waiting for things to load or to be able to download with lightning speed, faster internet means that internet phones will work better because the quality will be better. Score for unified communications. What sets this laser apart from previous iterations is that the zinc oxide nanowire material used to develop the lasers is placed on silver instead of glass, which is traditionally used. The ultra-thin laser produces as many as 1 trillion pulses per second, making it much faster than your run-of-the-mill laser. With faster speeds streaming will be much better as well. As for the cost of using such a laser when it is implemented, it is still unknown. Either way, it could really impact the web and its speed.

  1. You need a fast connect for video conferencing and cloud services. It will reduce the amount of time you spend waiting for it to load.

  4. The best aspect of cloud services is that you can access your information from any device at any time. We are becoming less chained to certain devices.
