Considering it's a gigabyte of pure text, that's amazing. If it were a terabyte we might be considered a database of Young Literature.

Well, it took about 3.5 years to get to just one gigabyte. But we're now adding 3 megabytes a day, which means we should hit the second gigabyte in another year (probably even less).

Now, if that rate of one gigabyte per year holds up, then YWS should hit a terabyte in only 1,000 years. Not bad!
