A look back at 2008 in pictures

A hundred feet under the centre of Stockholm there exists what could be the world's most futuristic datacentre, explored by ZDNet UK in early December.

Speaking of archaeology, the current trend to increase security by burying datacentres underground, frequently in abandoned military or civil defence installations, may give historians of the future a lot to think about when they trowel in and have to make sense of what ISPs did and why. Given the problems we have with those questions in the present, good luck to them.
