Recently I saw an Ad of Akamai in one of the website's which claimed that it has created a much much faster internet for us all. Well, I was puzzled seeing that - How can a single company create a faster internet?Before I was about to push this aside thinking that Akamai has used advanced Fibre Optics or a proprietary network on it's own. I just went over to their website and lo I found a link for that story.
