possible? probably but do you wanna spend the rest of your life waiting for it to download, knowing that by the time its done most of it will be obsolete?

I don't think it is possible because the internet is so large. It is massive. I don't think it is possible, but you could try downloading your favorite websites and try surfing those.

Normal computers don't have enough space to do that. The Wayback Machine over at archive.org does something similar, but it's, I think, using multiple terabytes of data. I suppose if you had enough flash drives you could.

Probably not. New websites are being constantly added and added. And others being removed also. The internet is one huge massive collection of site and graphics and links and source codes.

Theoretically, yes. Practically, no. First, I assume you're speaking practically of the entire world-wide web. You could do so, but you would need 1.) an incredibly large storage array - some many, many terabytes of storage. 2.) you'd need an account/password for every secured site in existence. 3.) you'd need to write some sort of web-crawler to creep through every registered domain in existence, suck all the data down to the local machine, and write it to the local storage array. 4.) you'd need a heckuva big pipe (really high-speed internet connection) 5.) you'd need time. lots of time. If you had all hard resources, you'd need time to download everything. Essentially, you'd be doing everything that the major search engines do - and more. They download and index primary information, but they do not cache every little thing on the page (most often, they skip images) In reality, by the time you were done, much of the stuff you downloaded would be stale. (Think about it - how often do you follow a google link to find the page at the other end doesn't match what you were expecting to find...) The practical side says: Why bother? just surf it live, where you'll get the most recent information. The cost to attempt such a thing would be far more expensive than simply buying a laptop and subscribing to a mobile internet card for your laptop. (I think Sprint offers them for around $40 a month)

Yeah I gotta say that is one of the dumbest questions I've heard in a long time. Especially on a site that changes every few seconds, not to mention every other one that does too. I won't downrate you because I hope you were joking but be ready for it from others!

No as the internet involves the whole world and people everywhere at all times of the day and night are adding and changing and deleting things constantly. The internet changes too fast. I can't even begin to calculate how many pages of info there could be added every second of the day.

Visit Google?

no, but you should go get the book version. LOL

No, the Internet's preee-ty big, it'd probably take up the space of all the hard drives of the computers on a continent or something...but it would be so awesome to download the whole i'net!

YES IT IS POSSIBLE JUST LOOK OUT FOR "SURF OFFLINE" named software, which can fulfill your requirement

little by little you will catch a wave in time!

Just how many hard drives are you willing to buy...??? :-p

In theory, you could do that. Of course, that is if you're okay with nothing ever updating....a site like Answerbag would not have much use other than for looking at old questions. I'm not even going to go into the technical limitations....

Yes you can! But you need to have a iphone 'Big Butt' version phone or Nokia S37 models. (Ha ha ha ha) First go to Google and download 'Im a lunatic' software. One of my friends tried it and now he is happyly surfing the net off-line (Brrrrrrp) But he had to join the Papuwa treatment center for 'Mentally unstable people' Good luck!

LOL! Not unless you have about a ten billion terabit computer!

The nearest that you could find would be Google cache. Otherwise, you could very well surf inside your own browser cache, but it is generally much smaller than the whole Internet.
