  Yeah but that isn’t as impressive sounding.

  Did you know the wayback machine saves 150,000,000,000,000 bytes worth of webpages every day?! If you stacked 150,000,000,000,000 bytes end to end, they would reach from earth to the moon and back SEVEN TIMES! That’s enough bytes to fill 18 American football stadiums!

    But how many Olympic sized pools? That’s the only measurement I learned in school.

    Pfft, the wayback machine saves 1,200,000,000,000,000 bits every day! That’s way more impressive then your piddly 150,000,000,000,000.

      If you earned 100,000 bits every day since the first day the Earth existed, you wouldn’t even be half way there today!
