Joining the modern world…
Our rural area does not get high speed internet via DSL or cable — the boundary lines for service stop about 3 miles short of us. Two satellite companies serve our area, but one is $100/month and the other at $50/month has a huge wait list that I’ve been on for months.
Another $50/month company just started up and I’m scheduled for installation next Friday! Whoo-hoo! Can’t wait. Hope it works. My slow dialup can’t access some sites and is extremely slow for many others. I might be offline for a bit next Friday while we get the kinks out, but I’ll keep my msn dial-up for backup for a month.
Looking foward to joining the modern internet world! 🙂
I still have dialup (except at work), so you’re not alone.
Oh, sorry to hear that Paula. Some blogs take 3-5 minutes to load, and a few sites time out before I can get them to come in. And uploading to the website would go faster. Wish big sites had text-only options so the big photo files could be skipped by people on dialup.
