In the news recently was a story about a homing pigeon in South Africa named Winston. Winston's owner has been unhappy with the slow internet speed provided by the his internet service provider Telkom. So they decided to see how long it would take to transfer 4 GB of data over a distance of 60 miles. Winston the pigeon took a little over an hour to transfer the data. In two hours Telkom had only managed to transfer 1/25th of the data.
