I received an e-mail announcement from CIRA today with the information that the one millionth .ca (dot ca) domain was registered earlier this week. Then I found out that 16.8 million Canadians use the Internet for personal, non-business reasons.
Did you know that Canada's population is growing by one human being every minute and 36 seconds? This results in 1% growth per year, and is broken down into: one birth every one minute and 29 seconds; one death every two minutes and 14 seconds; and a net migration gain of one person every
2 minutes and 29 seconds.
Oh, and the population of the world is 6,661,958,150... no, make that 6,661,958,196... that's almost 50 persons added in the time I could type the number. That's also double the world's population in 1965, when The Beatles came out with Help! and Rubber Soul were appointed Members of the British Empire (MBE) by the Queen.....
