How Slow Is Your Internet Speed? Wings Beat Web (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


This is a tale from 2009.

An IT company in South Africa conducted a realtime experiment using a carrier pigeon named Winston to test the apallingly slow speed of its Internet service provider’s (ISP) ADSL line. The 11-month old pigeon flew 60 miles from the company’s call center in Howick to its office in Durban carrying a 4GB memory stick containing the files. Winston completed the aerial flight in one hour and eight minutes, and upload of the menory stick data took another hour to complete. The pigeon arrival and data download  were completed but the ISP had only sent 4% of the data download over the same amount of time.

From the late 19th century to early 20th century, Pigeons were used in war as communication tools.

Thanks to their unique homing ability, carrier pigeons have long played an invaluable role in war as military messengers and, as technology progressed, photographers. During both the First and Second World Wars, carrier pigeons were used to transport messages back to their home coop behind the lines. These pigeons often carried important messages that saved lives and won battles.
