Not a day goes by where rain doesn't fall on the Earth.  Our weather patterns have changed through the eons and there have been wetter periods and dryer periods but so far as I know the rain keeps falling and will continue to keep falling until Earth can no longer sustain a liquid water environment.

The World Wide Web works much the same way.  As we add content to the Web we "hook it up" and link to something, and something often links back to us.  Even on the dark Web there are a lot of links.  But do links burst into existence at a continuous rate?  Is there a predictability to how much linkage we create with our new content?  I'm sure a few people have tried to estimate stuff like this.  But there's always a catch.

The universe I see when I sit on my porch and look up into the sky is very different from the universe a professional astronomer sees with all of today's available advanced technology.  On a clear night I may be able to see a few galaxies.  On any night astronomers around the world may be counting billions of galaxies.
