It's "backed by Google" but as far as I'm aware, Google are more providing them with connectivity than they are actually developing the toolset. Still, the theory behind it is good :)	Chilling_Silence (9)

Iantech, 1000 gigabytes (1024) is a terabyte, not a petabyte. A petabyte is indeed approximately 1 million gigabytes (1000 terabytes). Admittedly the phrase "giga giga byte" seems a bit misleading though. I imagine you probably know this and just misread something or got it mixed up, but we wouldn't want others to get confused...	george12 (7)
