This is freakishly wild! Check it out!!!
Here you can find the movie Warriors of the net in several different languages. The movie is 12 minutes long. It is about an IP packets journey through the net past routers, firewalls and transatlantic cables. It is available for free donwload for non-commerical use.
Hi WAC I can't watch this right now, but I have to assume that it doesn't take an IP packet 12 minutes to cross the Atlantic so there's more?

No, it takes seconds or less. That’s what makes it all so amazin. Connections are dynamically established and torn down, addresses are looked up, and routing decisions are made all in the blink of an eye.
Hurrah for layer 3. One of the greatest achievements of man/womankind.
